The Wendelstein Church was consecrated in 1890 according to the regulations of the pontifical and is therefore Germany's highest church. The church on Wendelstein is often mistakenly referred to as the "Wendelstein Chapel". On August 20, 1890, the Archbishop of Munich Antonius von Thoma consecrated the Wendelstein Church to Mary, the Mother of God, the Patrona Bavariae. The small Wendelinkapelle is located right at the top of the Wendelstein.
