Beautiful Succulent

I came across this Sempervivum montanum on our descent. These plants grow on rock and can stand a drought well. The German name is Berg-Hauswurz. I will generally use the German name of plants I photographed for the simple reason that I bought several German books about Alpine flora, because they are more detailed.

It could also be Sempervivum arachnoideum, which refers to the web-like hairs on its leaves. A bit hard to see here.
