Whetstone making

From rock to finished product

Making whetstones is a tradition in Unterammergau. There are still many quarries everywhere in the area around Unterammergau. The whetstone makers earned their living with this craft for over 500 years.

The “Historical Working Group” operates the last fully functional grinding mill in the gorge and thus keeps traditional crafts alive.

Traditional Leonhardi ride

Every year on the last weekend in October, festively decorated steeds and carriages from the region go to the horse blessing during the traditional Leonhardi ride.

In a long train we go from the village center of Unterammergau to the oldest pilgrimage church in the Ammergau Alps Nature Park, the so-called Kappel, where the Holy Mass with blessing takes place.

This is just one of numerous traditions that have a permanent place in our village community throughout the year.

The “Kirchtasingen” organized by our folk costume association is unique and commemorates the two major village fires.
