St. Ulrich, Parish church in Seeg, Germany.

St. Ulrich is the Catholic parish church of Seeg, rebuilt in its present form by Johann Jakob Herkomer, whose father and grandfather came from the village. Its white nave ceiling carries frescoes framed by pale pink and grey scrollwork, with a round clock face near the top centre. A large chancel arch bordered by white and gold stucco opens onto the altar, flanked by side altars with columns, statues and painted panels; two candle chandeliers hang above plain wooden pews.

A chapel in Seeweiler shows the earlier Seeg parish church before 1635, a Gothic building with a saddle roof. The present church was shaped by Johann Jakob Herkomer, whose father and grandfather came from Seeg; Balthasar Riepp and Johann Baptist Enderle painted the frescoes. Interior restorations followed in 1905, 1942/43 and 1982, and after two square metres of nave ceiling plaster fell in 1999 the roof structure was secured in 2000/2001.

The church is known as the "Little Wies" because its rococo design resembles the Wieskirche near Steingaden. Its main fresco depicts the 1571 Battle of Lepanto, with Mary in blue before Christ in red, God the Father in yellowish tones, and an angel hurling lightning at Turkish ships while pope and emperor watch. The high altar shows the Eye of God in a radiant wreath, echoed by the Lamb of God on the left side altar and the dove of the Holy Spirit on the right.

The church is accessible on foot or by local transportation from Seeg's town center. Visitors should check opening times for tours, as access may be limited during religious services held in the building.

St. Ulrich is nicknamed the "Little Wies" for its resemblance to the Wieskirche near Steingaden. Its eleven 19th-century stained-glass windows, in the style of the late Nazarenes, were removed in 1942 and only rediscovered by chance in 1994; they are now shown in the Seeg local museum.
