Today, the day is primarily dedicated to the world-famous Passion Play, the centerpiece of our pilgrimage trip. In 1633 the Oberammergau villagers promised to perform the suffering, death, and resurrection of Christ every tenth year, if no one was to die of the plague anymore, which raged in many parts of Europe. The villagers were answered by God and therefore in 1634 the first Passion Play took place. The promise has been kept ever since.

Today we explore Zürich with a guided tour of the city. Enjoy the picturesque lanes of the central Altstadt (Old Town), on either side of the Limmat River, which reflect its pre-medieval history. Waterfront promenades like the Limmatquai follow the river toward the 17th-century Rathaus (town hall).
