Passionsspielhaus Erl
Architecture: Robert Schuller (1956-1959) Next to the Passionsspielhaus a new Festspiehaus was build by Delugan Meissl Associated Architects.
The Festspielhaus – place of performance for the passion plays performed by approx. 500 actors and actresses and at the same time the main place of performance for the Tyrolean festival Erl – was built in the 1950s by Robert Schuller and in the meantime, due to its distinctive shape, has become a symbol of Erl. The white building at the foot of the Niederndorfer Mountains uses the hillside location for the ascending auditorium and emerge towards the valley side as gestural form of the stage house.
