Very beautiful, but it clearly needs restoration for its proper conservation. I have not seen it inside, you have to call in advance because of what the townspeople have told me

On the outside and comparing it with what there is in the surroundings it is very good, on the inside I can't speak, because it says that you can only visit on Wednesdays, as long as they answer you, because I wrote to them a couple of times and they didn't bother to reply ??‍♂️.

You can only visit on Wednesdays, curious to see if you go in passing, a little careless.

Surprise to find such a cool castle in such a small town. A pity that it is private and cannot be visited.

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.
