Absolutely sublime estate! Everything is very well thought out and practical as a reception venue! The work carried out is really successful, especially on the farm house for accommodation! Thanks to Thomas for all the management! I recommend this place with my eyes closed!

The area as a whole is magnificent. The reception room offers a large reception capacity with several possible configurations according to everyone's wishes. The surrounding park also allows all guests to enjoy the outdoors, and includes a large courtyard to compensate for the uncertainties of the Norman weather. A magnificent gîte can also be rented from the same owners (up to 14 beds), close to the reception room. In summary, this estate was a perfect setting for our wedding. Last but not least, the venue manager, Thomas, who supported us perfectly in organizing the reception, providing us with lots of advice. THANKS !

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.
