OBERAMMERGAU PASSION PLAY
The fabled OBERAMMERGAU Passion Play is performed all day with a 3 hour lunch break. The villagers made an oath to God during the Black Plague that, if He spared them, they would be faithful to tell the story of the Passion of Jesus to the end of the ages. The Black Plague decimated one third of the European population, but the villagers were spared. Today you will witness their faithfulness. You will be given an English translation. All meals are provided while in Oberammergau.
