Passionsspielhaus

The Festspielhaus in Thiersee was built in 1926 for the performance of the Passion Plays. From the outside, the building appears inconspicuous. However, the resonant interior is impressive. The masterpiece unfolds above the heads of the visitors. The vaulted ceiling is a special construction – a combination of static necessity with artistic architecture. The tradition of the Passion Plays has been lived in Thiersee for over 200 years. The Passion Plays take place in this town every six years. Guided tours of the Passionsspielhaus Thiersee are possible at any time with advance booking.
