The Wieskirche is a remarkably splendidly furnished pilgrimage church in the district of Wies, which belongs to the municipality of Steingaden, in the so-called Bavarian "Pfaffenwinkel". The full name of the Wieskirche is "Wallfahrtskirche zum Gegeißelten Heiland auf der Wies".

It is one of the most famous rococo churches in the world and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983.

During the service the church will be closed and not open for tours. (10:00 am to 11:00/12:00 am).
