Small dolmen in a well cared for and easily accessible location but very little parking.

Dolmen in perfect condition, easy access area.

It is clean and well-kept in a semi-enclosed space, to put it mildly, but it would be nice to have a green fence on the side of the road so that the houses and the marquee do not appear in the photos.

Beautiful with tables for 7 picnics, ideal to come with children

It is at the foot of the road,... there is no place to park, you leave the car where you can or later... access is free...

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.
