In 1916, the Allgäuer Herdbuchgesellschaft (founded in 1893) received a rare gift from one of its founding members - the Königsalpe. Named after its former owner, Bonaventura König, it is the middle of three alpine pastures in Gschwend, above Trabers-Mutten in the municipality of Stiefenhofen. As a thank you for the donation from B. König in 1916, the breeding association built a chapel right next to the alpine pasture in 1934. It was consecrated in honor of Saint Bonaventura.

A wonderful spot. I understand that this was once an alpine pasture. Today it's a lovely shelter for a great picnic and has lovely hammocks for relaxing. It's beautiful here.

The Adelegg mountain range was not settled on a large scale until after 1700. Emmental cheese was produced on the Schletteralpe until 1896. After that, the dairy was converted into a restaurant. For five decades, the Schleier attracted numerous hikers and skiers to the Adelegg. In 1962, no new tenant was found and the once proud alpine pasture fell into ruin. A fire finally did the rest. Today, there is a weather shelter on the site.
