Then you will travel to Oberammergau, famous for its wood carvers, rich in painted houses (Lüftl paintings) and Passion Play. During the Thirty Years' War, after months of suffering and death caused by the plague, the people of Oberammergau swore to "perform the play of the suffering, death and resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ" every ten years. . This tradition has been carried on ever since, and the next Passion Play will be performed in 2010.
