Germany & Austria 2017 - Video 5 of 17
Wednesday, June 14, 2017. Today we drive to our second campsite in Oberammergau, with a stop along the way to see the Pilgrimage Church of Wies. The church dates back to the 1740s. Lothar said we can’t see Bavaria without seeing this Church with all of its ornate decorations and paintings on the ceiling. We then drove to a campsite on the edge of the town of Oberammergau, which is famous for its Passion Play performed by the residents of the town once every ten years. Oberammergau is also famous for the many frescoes painted on the facades of the buildings. The frescoes contain traditional Bavarian themes, such as fairy tales and religious scenery.

The Passion Play of Oberammergau
Over 2000 participants brought the story of Jesus of Nazareth to the ears and eyes of the audience in a five-hour presentation on the imposing open-air stage. Almost half of the inhabitants of Oberammergau enacted with great devotion the story of Jesus whose message gives billions of people hope and strength. The play covers the period of Jesus entering Jerusalem and continues up to his death on the Cross and his resurrection. The new production, under the direction of Christian Stückl and the artistic team of the Passion Play in 2000, the stage designer Stefan Hageneier and the music directors Markus Zwink and Michael Bocklet, reflected the tremendous community achievement.
For ten months the villagers playing the roles of Jesus, Mary, Pontius Pilate and the apostles, of the children, soldiers and priests rehearsed the newly revised text whilst the orchestra and the singers studied the exceptional music created for the performance by the composer Rochus Dedler.

The Oberammergau Passion Play 2020 | Trailer
A play of life and death, promised in a moment of mortal threat - so began the history of the Oberammergau Passion Play in 1633. In the middle of the Thirty Years War, after months of suffering and death from the plague, the Oberammergauers swore an oath that they would perform the Play of the Suffering, Death and Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ every ten years. At Pentecost 1634, they fulfilled their pledge for the first time on a stage they put up in the cemetery above the fresh graves of the plague victims. In the year 2020, the Community of Oberammergau will perform the Passion Play, they have preserved throughout the centuries with singular continuity, for the 42nd time.
Since 1634, the most famous passion play in the world has taken place in Oberammergau.
The tradition, maintained and experienced almost without interruption for over 380 years, of putting on the play about the suffering, death and resurrection of Christ every ten years, will be continued for the 42nd time in 2020 and is regarded as the most important passion play in the world. The village at the edge of the Bavarian Alps expects approximately 500,000 visitors for the passion play, over half of which will be international guests.
Beautiful Bavaria-Ettal, Schloss Linderhof, Oberammergau, Garmisch-Partenkirchen HD
Beautiful Bavaria-a two day visit to Ammergau Alps, from Munich to Ettal, Schloss/Palace Linderhof, Oberammergau and Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
Ettal is a small town in the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Ettal is best known for its Benedictine Abbey/monastery, founded on 28 April 1330 by Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian. The construction of the church was completed in 1370- In 1744, the abbey and the abbey church were largely destroyed in a fire. It was completely redesigned and spectacularly rebuilt in the Baroque style by Enrico Zuccalli, a Swiss-Italian architect working in Munich, who had studied with Bernini. The decoration was primarily carried out by Josef Schmutzer of the Wessobrunn School of stuccoists and Johann Baptist Straub, who was responsible for the altars and the chancel. The monastery runs a brewery, a distillery, a bookstore, an art publishing house, a hotel, a cheese factory joint venture, and several smaller companies. The distillery produces Ettaler Kloster Liqueur, a herbal liqueur which, like that of the Carthusian monks, comes in sweeter yellow and more herbal green varieties.
Oberammergau is famous as the town of the wood carvers and as the home of the Passion Plays which take place every ten years. Next, 42nd, will be held in 2020.
The wood carving trade dates back to the middle ages. Today there are still around 60 active wood carvers. Another, not a bit less important reason for Oberammergau to be world famous is 'Lüftlmalerei', a technique of painting the facades, originally applied for decorating the baroque facades in Italy and Southern Germany. The name of the technique is probably derived from the fact that Franz Seraph Zwinck (1748-1792), probably the most well-known craftsman of his guild, lived in a house called 'Zum Lüftl' in Oberammergau.
Linderhof Palace (German: Schloss Linderhof), in southwest Bavaria near Ettal Abbey is the smallest of the three palaces built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria, the only one which he lived to see completed and the one in which he stayed more than anywhere else. The Royal Villa of Ludwig II, originated as a hunting lodge belonging to his father Maximilian II - the Königshäuschen. It was enlarged by Georg Dollmann between 1870 and 1872 with a U-shaped complex centred on the King's Bedchamber. Although Linderhof is much smaller than Versailles, it is evident that the palace of the Louis XIV (who was an idol for Ludwig) was its inspiration.
The Palace Park was completed from 1870 to 1880 from designs by Carl von Effner. Surrounding the palace are imitation baroque gardens and terraces and cascades in the Italian Renaissance style. The adjoining landscape garden continues into the mountain forest of the Ammergau Mountains.
Ludwig II introduced architectural features into the park based on the world of the Orient, such as the Moorish Kiosk and the Moroccan House, and on scenes from Wagner's music dramas such as the Venus Grotto, Hunding's Hut and the Hermitage of Gurnemanz.
The linden tree, from which the palace takes its name, is now 300 years old.
Garmisch-Partenkirchen is one of Germany's premier tourist holiday destinations and ski towns.. It lies a few kilometres from the Austrian border in the Oberbayern region, which borders Austria. Breathtakingly situated at the foot of Mount Zugspitze, Germany's highest mountain at 2,962 m (9,718 ft.) it offers tremendous hiking, skiing and biking opportunities. Garmisch-Partenkirchen was founded by uniting the towns Garmisch and Partenkirchen for the Winter Olympics 1936.

The Passion Play or Easter pageant is a dramatic presentation depicting the Passion of Jesus Christ: his trial, suffering and death. It is a traditional part of Lent in several Christian denominations, particularly in Catholic tradition.
Oberammergau Passion Play is a passion play performed since 1634 as a tradition by the inhabitants of the village of Oberammergau, Bavaria, Germany. It was written by Othmar Weis, J A Daisenberger, Otto Huber, Christian Stuckl, Rochus Dedler, Eugen Papst, Marcus Zwink, Ingrid H Shafer, and the inhabitants of Oberammergau, with music by Dedler. Since its first production it has been performed on open-air stages in the village. The text of the play is a composite of four distinct manuscripts dating from the 15th and 16th centuries.
The play is a staging of Jesus' passion, covering the short final period of his life from his visit to Jerusalem and leading to his execution by crucifixion. It has been criticized as being anti-semitic, but it is the earliest continuous survivor of the age of Christian drama.
n 1633, the residents of Oberammergau, Bavaria, Germany, vowed that if God spared them from the bubonic plague ravaging the region, they would produce a play thereafter for all time depicting the life and death of Jesus. The death rate among adults rose from one person per 1000 per year in October 1632 to twenty in the month of March 1633. The adult death rate slowly subsided to one in the month of July 1633. The villagers believed they had been spared and they kept their part of the vow when the play was first performed in 1634.
The play is now performed repeatedly over the course of five months during every year ending in zero. 102 performances took place from 15 May until 3 October 2010 and is next scheduled for 2020. The production involves over 2,000 performers, musicians and stage technicians, all residents of the village. The play comprises spoken dramatic text, musical and choral accompaniment and tableaux vivants, which are scenes from the Old Testament depicted for the audience by motionless actors accompanied by verbal description. These scenes are the basis for the typology, the interrelationship between the Old and New Testaments, of the play. They include a scene of King Ahasuerus rejecting Vashti in favor of Esther, the brothers selling Joseph into slavery in Egypt, and Moses raising up the nehushtan (bronze serpent) in the wilderness. Each scene precedes that section of the play that is considered to be prefigured by the scene. The three tableaux mentioned are presented to the audience as prefiguring Christianity superseding Judaism, Judas selling information on the location of Jesus, and the crucifixion of Jesus.
The evolution of the Passion Play was about the same as that of the Easter Play, originating in the ritual of the Latin Church, which prescribes, among other things, that the Gospel on Good Friday should be sung in parts divided among various persons.

Luftlmalerei House Paintings in Oberammergau
The painting is most religious character in particularly involving figures of saints as well as manifold scenes all around the Passion Play theme in Oberammergau. In Southern Germany and Italy Lüftlmalerei is a handicraft method of wall-paintings originally applied for decorating the baroque facades. In 18th century the method began to become popular in the foothills region of the Alps, where wealthy traders or people peasants and craftsmen displayed their wealth by means of opulently painted facades. The Painting technique is to called Fresco Technique, the mineral basis of water colors are applied to wet freshly laid plaster. They become a fixed layer of color after colors dry, insoluble to water. The necessity to work quickly in the fresh air (Luft), led to the belief that the term Lüftlmalerei is some how connected to this particular method of painting. The famous town of Oberammergau also shows how inextricably linked a handicraft is to the history of its town. In principle a stroll through the town famed the world over for it passion play is almost like walking through a museum. The traditional painting are still stand with us, where we have lots of technology like computer printing etc etc, I love colors and art. Let see the some pictures which I collect from Flickr.com.
