The Münchner Haus ("Munich House") on Germany's highest mountain, the Zugspitze, is an Alpine Club hut belonging to the Munich Section of the German Alpine Club (DAV).

The category 2 hut lies on the west summit of the Zugspitze at a height of 2,959 metres (9,708 ft) and is thus the highest refuge hut in the German Alps. The Münchner Haus is managed by Hansjörg Barth whose family have run the hut for three generations since 1925.
