Chapel in front of the Wieskirche. We saw a lot of these little one room chapels, mostly in remote areas, this one, though, was in the Wieskirche's front yard! -
Hotel near the Wieskirche. The painting around the windows is a traditional Bavarian way of decorating a building's exterior. Even the white around the Wieskirche is painted! -
