Backstage

There is a lot to discover behind the stage of the Passion Play Oberammergau.

Backstage in the aisle of the 110-year-old passion theatre, stands the oldest requisite of the enactment – it is the over 200-year-old table of the Last Supper Scene. The Roman Shields are hanging on the wall, the lances are on a gutter - they are surprisingly heavy. The costume of the High Priest Herod is decorated with splendid feathers. The furnishings of the High Priests seem lordly. Tailors are working on costumes and the shoe storage is enormous. You can see the ‘Golden Calf’ and three mighty crosses that are seven meters long with a weigh of more than 70 kilos.
