The town is also home to the Bavarian Museum of Prehistory, housed in a former monastery, and the Werdenfels Museum, which features exhibits on the local culture and history. Oberammergau is a popular tourist destination, especially in the summer months, and there are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops in the town centre.
