Erl

The landscape around Erl is an Alpine river valley on the Inn, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and local economy. Set on Austria’s border with Bavaria in Tyrol, the municipality is known far beyond its size for the Erl Passion Play, a tradition first documented in 1613 and performed in its dedicated Passion Playhouse. The modern Festspielhaus Erl hosts opera and concert programmes, giving this small community a notable role in Austria’s cultural calendar. Forested slopes and the Kaiser Mountains define the wider setting, while the Inn Valley connects Erl with Kufstein and the Bavarian foothills.
