Embedded in the Kaiser Mountains, you will find the Fritz Pflaum Hut.
The shelter was erected in honor of Fritz Pflaum. He is a legendary alpinist from days gone by and a great lover of the Wild Kaiser. During a challenging mountain tour in the Bernese Alps, Dr. Fritz Pflaum died on August 25, 1908. Four years after his death, on August 25, 1912, the shelter was inaugurated in the midst of the Kaiser peaks and put into service. Between 1937 and 1949, the name Fritz Pflaum Hut disappeared from various maps and was replaced by the designation Griesnerkar Hut. The reason for this was that Jewish names found no place in the German Reich. After the war, the name was changed back to Fritz Pflaum Hut.
The Fritz Pflaum Hut is located in the Griesner Kar at an altitude of 1,865 m and is thus the highest hut in the Wild Kaiser, and is accessible year-round with an AV key (fritzpflaum@alpenverein-bayerland.de).
