Mobilia, Kangasala, Finland

Mobilia museum specializes in cars and road traffic. The exhibitions illustrate the history of the field in Finland, where long distances have always given both roads and vehicles particular importance. The exhibitions change annually, focusing on different sub-themes of automobile traffic. The exhibitions are planned with foresight; the exact subjects are known years ahead. A wide collection of photos and other objects is also on display in Mobilia.

At the moment the permanent exhibition includes 26 classic cars. There is also the Rally Hall of Fame, an exhibition that depicts international rally stars and rally cars.

Okay but lacks anything than 1920s kind of cars. Some rallycars but nothing .. super special.

Unique attraction for the car lovers. Has pedalling cars for children over 4 years old with real traffic signs for practice. The main thing is the old cars that are in mint condition ranging from t Ford to fastest rally car. You need to visit this place if your kid likes cars.

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.
