The small wooden building made of massive, unhewn logs shows an archaic form of log construction, as it was already practised in prehistoric times. The hut was located near the ‘Säuerling-Hof’ and was used to store hay, which is why it was built in an airy manner, i.e. with gaps between the carpentry wreaths. The steep scissor roof is covered with planks.
