Great

This picturesque and historical German town, Oberammergau, belongs to the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, in Bavaria. It is known for the showing of the Passion of the Chris which takes place every 10 years. This tradition dates back to the seventeenth century. In the facades of Oberammergau exists what is called Lüftlmalerei, something common in areas of Upper Bavaria. They recreate pictures on house facades - in the eyes of the beholder these pictures seem to be almost real. It's like an outdoor museum; stories are told on the walls, some are religious, some are fairy tales. A highlight is, for example, "Pilatushaus" or "House of Pilate".
