This fantastic-value package includes guaranteed tickets for this unique 10-yearly event, 2 nights' accommodation in the local area and return train tickets from Munich.In 1633 when the bubonic plague was raging across Europe, the surviving population of Oberammergau vowed to perform a Passion Play every 10 years if they were spared. At Whitsun in 1634 they kept their promise for the first time, and their legacy has lived on in one of Europe's most celebrated religious traditions.

The play, re-inacting the life and death of Jesus Christ, features over 2000 performers, musicians and designers. In keeping with the strict tradition of the play, all participants are residents of the village of Oberammergau itself and the stunning performance is the culmination of years of careful planning.
Included in the package are Category Two tickets for the Passion Play (view map below), and you can choose from two accommodation options. Opt to stay at Hotel Gasthof Zur Rose in the centre of Oberammergau and make the most of the special atmosphere the Passion Play brings to the village.
