History

1899 was built by the Academic Alpine Club Berlin section below the Kübelkars the Gaudeamushütte. She remained uncultivated until 1911, was then at least temporarily leased to the section Kitzbühel. 1924 an avalanche destroyed the Gaudeamushütte. A makeshift hut was built and easily managed in the same year transitional. 1927 built the Berlin section about 300 meters further east the current hut. It is remarkable that they survived the Second World War without damage and then rarely changed their tenants. After the takeover by the Section Main-Spessart the hut in 2003 was renewed and extended to an extension. Since the 2004 season, Martin and Anni Leichtfried are the current tenants.
