History


Gars was between 1075 - 1095, during the reign of the House of Babenberg, a former capital of ancient Austria.[3]

In the 19th and 20th centuries, Gars was a traditional summer resort (Sommerfrische). At the end of the 20th century, the climatic health resort (Luftkurort) of Gars experienced another boom thanks to Willi Dungl's health tourism.
