BRUNCKOW'S CABIN 
  
Known as one of the 'bloodiest cabins in Arizona history! 
The ruins of Brunckow's cabin are located 1.4 miles North East of the SanPedro River; just off Charleston Road on the East side.     N  31  38.315    W  110  09.452
Frederick Brunckow, a German immigrant, built the cabin in the 1800's, and was found murdered and thrown down a mine shaft after having struck silver there in 1858. Two others were found dead in the cabin.
It is said to supposedly be 'haunted!'  With at least 21 people being killed there......and  buried in the surrounding  area.  The cabin is located in a beautiful area of Arizona...with some existing walls still standing and visible.  The Brunckow Hill, almost 4500 feet high, lies in the distance.  
The cabin is located a couple hundred yards to the East of Charleston Road.  Charleston Road lies between Tombstone and Sierra Vista.  It is 1.4 miles North East of the San Pedro River. The access road is now gated (private property--No Trespassing) but the cabin itself is located on BLM Land. You will need to walk in the 200 yards! The coordinates for the Cabin are  N  31  38.315    W  110  09.452.
