Wies Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The Wies Chapel is located directly at the entrance to the Wies Church. The small chapel naturally leads a shadowy existence next to the famous Wies Church. Nevertheless, it is worth taking a look inside.

Very nice round from Steingaden to Wieskirche. The way back is exclusively tar road. I would go back the way there next time.
There are plenty of places to stop off in Steingaden, and there is also plenty to stop off at at the Wieskirche.
