The place is really pleasant, very spacious room which really highlights the works and paintings. The park is magnificent with its majestic trees. The staff was really very professional and pleasant. We came to see the exhibition of drawings and paintings made by children from different schools in the town of Eysines. A super nice visit, my grandson was delighted that we came to see his magnificent drawing

Very pretty exterior Unfortunately the room where the ceremonies take place is a large white room with chairs and two paintings. It lacks decoration.

Wieskirche

The Pilgrimage Church of Wies (Wieskirche) is an oval rococo church, designed in the late 1740s by Dominikus Zimmermann. It is located in the foothills of the Alps in the municipality of Steingaden.

The sanctuary of Wies is a pilgrimage church extraordinarily well-preserved in the beautiful setting of an Alpine valley, and is a perfect masterpiece of Rococo art and creative genius, as well as an exceptional testimony to a civilization that has disappeared.

The hamlet of Wies, in 1738, is said to have been the setting of a miracle in which tears were seen on a simple wooden figure of Christ mounted on a column that was no longer venerated by the Premonstratensian monks of the Abbey. A wooden chapel constructed in the fields housed the miraculous statue for some time. However, pilgrims from Germany, Austria, Bohemia, and even Italy became so numerous that the Abbot of the Premonstratensians of Steingaden decided to construct a splendid sanctuary.
