With the painter Franz Seraph Zwinck (1748 - 1792), who was a native of Oberammergau, an artist was found who perfectly combined the art of representation and technique. Zwinck became the most influential Lüftl painter in Oberammergau and the surrounding area. Examples of his work in the Passion town of Oberammergau are three external facades of today's state forestry office on Ettaler Strasse, the Kölblhaus (opposite the forestry office), the Mußldomahaus on the Lüftlmalereck, the Dedlerhaus and the Pilatushaus.

Oberammergau is known for its Lüftlmalerei and the Passion Play. A truly remarkable place to visit.

Lüftlmalerei (painted houses), woodcarving and the Passion Play make Oberammergau a worthwhile destination.

A picture-book village, beautiful, where you will never get bored, there is a lot to discover. A large part of the colorful pictures on the facades date back to the 18th century. You will want to linger a little longer here.

There is no supermarket in the town center. If you want to go shopping, you should plan your route beforehand.

Oberammergau is an old traditional place with the famous Passion Play. The houses are wonderfully painted with fan painting.
