In 1633, the citizens of Oberammergau were spared from the plague and in thanks for this divine intervention they vowed to perform the ‘Passion of Christ’ every ten years, which today, with 2,000 participants, presents a truly amazing spectacle. Blend this with the magnificent scenery of Germany, Switzerland and Austria, the delights of Salzburg, Innsbruck and Lake Constance, and you have a memorable tour.
