Knorr Hut

The Knorr Hut is rated as category I, and belongs to the Munich Section of the German Alpine Club (DAV).

Finally the Munich Section of the newly founded German Alpine Club took over the hut.

On 10 August 1873[1] the work had proceeded sufficiently, that the newly built hut could be handed over to fulfil its purpose.

[1] A contemporary publication describes the hut in the following words: Built entirely of ashlar, it actually consists of two or three rooms.

The slightly higher, second room behind it is the length of a tall man and contains 3 large straw mattresses with woollen blankets, and can comfortably sleep 9 men.
