Wilcox Travel is very pleased to offer this unique opportunity for the sixth season in a row!

All of our Passion Play Packages include first class accommodations right in the village of Oberammergau at the quaint Turmwirt Hotel located within walking distance of the performance, and a Wilcox World Travel & Tours / American Express Representative is in residence at the Turmwirt Hotel during all of our ticket dates.

The Passion Play, based on the life of Christ, dates from the 17th Century. It was first performed in 1634, following a vow taken by the people of Oberammergau during an outbreak of bubonic plague which killed 15,000 nearby Munich residents in 1634-1635 alone.

The frightened population of Oberammergau prayed to be spared, taking a vow to be fulfilled not by a few but by the whole community. They vowed to do something in which everyone, rich and poor alike, would have a part: a Passion Play, the most sacred of all stories.
