Beautiful location.I look in the distance, across the Emperor's creek.You have another fortress, on the constituents of Paljan and Mokranska Miljacka.From the same neymars, the Pavlovic dynasty.It is inaccessible.You can see when you drive the main road Han Derventa-Sarajevo, at the one tunnels, so when you look you see on the other side a high cliff where two Miljacka merge into one. At the top of the cliff. Where are you from, Athletic?

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.
