Help to protect marine ethnological heritage of Eivissa and Formentera

With the aim to promote the protection of the Pitiusa ethnological heritage, the Council of Culture of the Consell d'Eivissa i Formentera will destine 60,000 euros to the maintenance and recovery of the traditional fishing boats: llaüts, bots and xalanes.

The Council of Culture intends this kind of help to the owners and users of these types of boats to be annual, and if there is any balance to use it to acquire a boat that would become part of the basis of the Ethnological Museums of Eivissa and Formentera.
