From 1912 to 1913 the sanatorium at Horlaubenstrasse 27 in Davos Dorf was run by Karl Bode for Dr. Janssen, a long-time doctor at the German sanatorium and for Dr. van Eyck built.

On June 28, 1913 it was opened as the «Sanatorium Beau-Site». The chief physician was Dr. Janssen, the leader W. Van Eyck.

On October 7, 1916 it was renamed the “Mountain Sanatorium Davos”. The co-owner Van Eyck died in 1918.

In 1924 it became the “Beau-Site Sanatorium” again. The chief physician was Dr. Hermann Frey, the leader was A. Kuhn.

In the years 1925 to 1927, the first renovation and expansion variants were carried out in a classicist-expressionist manner by the chalet factory for the Christian Social Health Insurance Association. In 1927 he took over the sanatorium on a rental basis under the name “Sanatorium Albula”.

In 1930 the sanatorium was bought by the Christian Social Health Insurance Fund (CSS), and Dr. Gwerder.

In 1935 Dr. Walter Huber chief physician, from 1943 to 1980 it was Dr. W. Rubin. Further additions and conversions took place in 1928, 1936 and 1948.

From 1955 to 1957, the gable roof was replaced with a flat roof by the construction company Künzli & Mai.

It was run as a sanatorium until 1971, and from 1971 to 1987 it was the CSS spa house. It was run by nuns from Cham.

In 1988, the Alexanderhaus Clinic for Allergy and Dermatology moved in for rent.

Another renovation took place in 1989/1990.

The architects Gian Carlo Bosch, Martin Heim and Reto Zindel converted the building into a youth hostel between 2000 and 2001. Since then, the “Albula Sanatorium” has been the “Youthpalace”.
