A promise kept for 388 years...

In 1633, the villagers of the small hamlet of Oberammergau, Germany made a promise to God: Save us from the plague, and we will perform a Passion Play telling stories of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection every 10 years. The deaths from the plague ceased, and hundreds of years later, the tradition continues with an epic production that brings audiences from all over the world.

Passion Play Theatre

The first performance of the play took place in 1634 on a simple wooden stage in the village cemetrey, above the graves of recent victims of the Plague. In the early 19th century, the performance was moved to the theatre's current location due to the growth in the number of visitors coming to see the play from around the world. The play now takes place in Oberammergau's large, open-air, purpose-built theatre with covered seating so performances can take place whatever the weather.

The auditorium seats around 4,500 people, with the comfortable seats set on an incline, providing everyone with a good view.
