Beautiful musical evening in a magnificent setting! It swings! An excellent Italian clarinetist capable of rising very high in the treble without tearing out the ears, 2 marvelous guitarists, 1 original Italian accordionist and a tireless bass cellist ..... an unforgettable atmosphere!

Beautiful exterior but modernized interior housing some works of art. Not for lovers of old stones. I salute all the same the municipality for the effort of rehabilitation in cultural place.

We were not able to visit the castle because it was closed on Mondays, but on the other hand we discussed with the secretary of the town hall who explained to us what there was to visit: it is to be seen. Very well received at the town hall which is right next to the castle

Very nice renovation. Congratulations to the "Friends of the castle". ?? It is a magnificent setting for the exhibitions presented there. Too bad it's a bit remote, but it's worth the trip.

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.
