Kampfhäusl

The Kampfhäusl is a small wooden hut located in the Alpine region above Berchtesgaden, situated in a forested mountain area with views over surrounding peaks. The simple construction displays typical features of Alpine mountain cabins with narrow windows and a steep roof designed for snow protection.

The hut was built in the early 20th century as an Alpine cabin and served at one point as a retreat for writing work. After World War II, it lost its original purpose and was gradually abandoned.

The cabin's name translates to 'Struggle House' in German, reflecting its connection to the political manuscripts produced within its walls.

The site is accessible via marked hiking paths through the Obersalzberg forest area, with the trail being moderately challenging and requiring good footwear. The terrain can vary depending on the season, so be prepared for changing conditions.

The cabin contained only basic furnishings: a tiled stove, table, chair, and bed during its most historically significant period.
