Ottobeuren began to gain in importance when the baroque abbey was built, to which a theatre hall was added in 1725. Under the guidance of Benedictine monks, monastery scholars performed Christian plays as was customary in the 17th and 18 centuries in many monasteries. Nowadays, only two of these school theatres are preserved, Ottobeuren being the oldest of them. Although the theatre hall with its ceiling paintings, frescos and stuccos is no longer playable, it is part of the tour through the function rooms of the monastery. (English)
