For many centuries, salt barges were used on the Traunsee to transport the precious salt from Ebensee to Gmunden. As part of the Capital of Culture year, an exact replica of a 16th-century salt barge was created, which will now make its regular trips on the lake. Join the Gisela for a round trip accompanied by the salt barge and let yourself be transported back to the historic era when salt was carried across the Traunsee by these traditional barges.
