Beautiful Perchten from Ebensee

In Ebensee am Traunsee in Upper Austria there is a lot going on on January 5th. People are waiting for an event that takes place every year on the last Raunacht, the night before Heilig-Drei-König in Ebensee: the Glöckler run, the Schön Perchten von Ebensee in Upper Austria.

Celebrate New Year's Eve with Aischgründer Carp

Why not celebrate New Year's Eve with Aischgründer carp? We visited the carp museum in Neustadt an der Aisch.

Here you will find recipes on how to prepare carp yourself.
