Bavaria | Wies Church

| Wies Church. The southern part of Bavaria on a sunny day is really perfect for a convertible, feels like a second back to Switzerland! Driving towards the Alps, the rolling hills, the sprawling meadows, the cows and horses dotted among them, the cotton candy-like clouds, and the scent of grass in the air (and the stink of cow dung..) Today I visited the UNESCO Wieskirche, the Wies Church. Hardly anyone has posted travel logs about it, it's too underrated 🤔 This is Germany's most exquisite, best-preserved, and most important Rococo church due to its pilgrimage history! It's so delicate, completely breaking the stereotype of Germany hh Especially the texture of various marble sculptures and gilded decorations, the covers of books, leaves, cloaks, waves, the folds of robes, and so on~ 'The harmony between art and landscape is unique. All the artistic forms and techniques used—architecture, sculpture, painting, stucco work, carving, wrought iron work—have been brought together by the architect, forming a structure of form and light that looks effortless. The luxurious interior decoration is unparalleled in its splendor and delicacy. The gorgeous stucco elements were created by Dominikus Zimmermann, and the ceiling murals by his brother, Johann Baptist Zimmermann, court painter of the Elector of Bavaria. The gilded stucco garlands on the dome ceiling and the intricate trompe l'oeil murals are masterpieces of human creativity and moving testimonies of profound faith.' –UNESCO 🎫 Free 👣 Self-guided tour, brochure for 3 euros (the illustrations are very beautiful and there are many stories, so I bought one), picture album for 6 euros.
