This castle is beautiful, interesting, beautifully immersed in the green, the personnel who are always friendly with customers, here is the ghost The brothers cavalcabo 'with Carlo who was cremona and Eleonora viritelli. Highly recommended.
Domenico Dattola (6 years ago)
The castle is very beautiful but can be visited only from the outside because it is privately owned. There are many legends and beliefs handed down for centuries to this day and which have given everything an ancient manor in an aura of mystery.

Esternamente bello. Chiuso al pubblico.

Purtroppo è residenza privata, visto solo l'esterno, perfettamente conservato. Il piccolo borgo con la chiesa sono carini. Si dice sia il meno abitato della provincia di Lodi..

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.
