Wallfahrtskirche "Gegeißelter Heiland" - Impression #1

Wallfahrtskirche "Gegeißelter Heiland"

Wies

The village of Wies once grew up around the Church of the Flagellated Savior (built 1774 - 1782 by Johann Fuchs, consecrated 1803). Even today, the baroque building is the religious and spiritual center of the village.

A church of the late baroque

This impression is conveyed above all by the high altar, pulpit, dome fresco, chandelier, windows, floor and by the vastness of the main room (without columns), but also by the use of Baroque design elements in the remaining furnishings. The parish church of Wies is known far beyond the parish boundaries as a pilgrimage church "to the flagellated Savior on the Wies"

 The baroque church interior with the wonderful ceiling painting of the triumphant church by the academic painter Toni Hafner gives us a foretaste of the heavenly Jerusalem already on earth. These and many other treasures are points of attraction especially for young people to spend a short or longer moment in our church.

The statue of Grace "The Flagellated Savior" stands in a round-arched niche in the center of the altar structure. The life-size gilded figures of saints represent the Mother of God Mary, St. Joseph, and Mary's parents: St. Anne and St. Joachim. A flaming heart with a crown of thorns, the Heart of Jesus, completes the three-tiered altar structure.
