The Passion Play, Oberammergau

The Oberammergau Passion Plays are a series of powerful and inspirational performances that occur every ten years that pay tribute to the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The play's origins date back to 1633 when the people of Oberammergau found themselves under threat from the Bubonic plague - the town pledged that if God were to spare them, they would perform a play each decade to celebrate the life and death of Jesus. Since the plays first started in 1634, they've grown in scale with over 2000 of the village residents now working together to ensure the spectacle honours the vow of their ancestors. You can experience this rare opportunity to witness the spectacle of the Passion Play for yourself on this fabulous 9 day package that includes 2 night Passion Play arrangements with the best seats in the house!
