Sant'Eufemia Church, Verona, Italy

The church of Sant'Eufemia is an ancient church in Verona. A church at the site was likely present by the 11th or 12th centuries, although the main layout we see today was completed only in the 14th century. In the interior, altarpieces were completed by Brusasorci and Giovanni Domenico Cignaroli. In the 14th century Spolverini chapel, there is a canvas and frescos by Giovanni Francesco Caroto. The gothic belltower contains six bells in F rung with the Veronese bellringing art.

You have to pay ticket to get inside, you might accept offer from Pellegrini and not charge the entrance. Shame!

One of the Most Incredible Catholic churches I ever visited, and I visit lot of churches, through my journeys along the years. It is truly Good mood out and inside, even if you're not a Catholic, you will feel the presence of God inside. The beauty of the Arts.. More than an Art museum, and it's a Local Church.. All and All, the Believers are nice and Welcoming, the Priests are inviting and curious where you're coming from. Highly recommend

Fantastic church in Verona. I loved exploring and enjoyed th silence and quiet of the place. I also liked the attention to the sanitisation of the space.

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.
