This place was our first stop in Oberammergau for food. My husband picked it, so I had no clue what…read morewe were stepping into other than "it's German food". The owner greeted us right away. He was very funny and interacted with the kids right away. After ordering our drinks, he sat next to my son in the booth and started doing magic tricks. My husband and I found it hilarious, while our 4 yr old was mystified. The kids loved their Mickey and gang cups (it's the small things in life). The menu was huge with lots of options. We ordered goulash for starters. SO GOOD! The kids had noodles, which my daughter devoured. I had Jagersnitzel which was also amazing. The portions are HUGE. After being in Germany for a couple months, I have to say this has been the best German I've had since being here. Mixed with the ambiance and entertainment, I'd go back again and again! You won't be disappointed!

I had dinner at Zauberstubn with a group of friends. It was great fun. The food is superb. I had…read morethe schnitzel which was delicious. Everyone in our group enjoyed their food so I don't think you can make a wrong choice from the menu. The owner came over and did three magic tricks. One assisted by a young girl who was celebrating her birthday and her brother. The magician explained the trick afterwards to them and us, but the other two tricks he did not and we couldn't figure them out. He was very good and had an excellent sense of humor. Definitely make a reservation or you may not get to eat! Well worth a visit, especially if you have kids. The owner/magician speaks several languages so he can entertain everyone. Give it a try, you won't regret it!

I attended the Passion Play in early September of 2022 and flew to Germany from the East Coast of…read moreAmerica specifically for this play. And it was TOTALLY worth it. Here's my story: I was listening to an interview on a radio station at the height of the pandemic in 2020 when I happened to hear about a very unique play that only happens ONCE every decade in a remote village in Germany... And that is how my family ended up in the village of Oberammergau in 2022. The Oberammergau Passion Play is a very special play that began in 1633, when the black plague was raging in Europe. People sought refuge in prayer and vowed: If the dying stops, every 10 years we will stage the passion of Jesus Christ. And in fact, no one died of the plague from that day on, and the play was indeed staged every ten years henceforth. There are two rules to for a person to act in the Passion Play: 1. They must be BORN in Oberammergau or 2. They must have lived in Oberammergau for TWENTY years. This means every single child, adult, other actor, and choir member (a total of 1500 participants) on stage for the play is a RESIDENT of the village. And last rule 3. no child that wants to participate can be denied from participation. No one was allowed to take pics or videos during the show itself, but take my word for it when I say it is truly a once-in-a-lifetime form of mindblowing art that everyone should experience! From the costumes to the stage setup to the acting and the music, the Passion Play is a memorable, thoughtful and moving form of theater that any person - religious or not - would enjoy. Mark your calendars, the next play will take place 8 years from now in 2030

It is held in an outdoor theater that seats several thousand people. The performances start in May and run through October and almost everyone who lives there is involved in some capacity. The 2010 version had a time change which meant that the performance started in the afternoon, there is a dinner break, and then the completion. Total running time is approximately 6 hours. Well, with the time change, those of us who did not speak or understand German, were no longer able to follow along in the textbook provided. Preparations are underway for the 2020 performance. Seating is part of your hotel fee. There are limited local hotels, which have the best seats, and the rest of the people are bused in from surrounding towns and villages. What I'm saying is: book now or definitely firm up your plans. It really is worth attending, at least once in your life.

The interior of the palace is so elaborate from the painting, walls, mirrors, chandelier , furnitures and the stairs. It looks fairytale to me to live in this place.
