Wengenkirche

St. Michael zu den Wengen features early baroque pillars and a modern interior renovated in 1998, including stained glass windows by Hermann Geyer.

The church originated from a monastery established in 1183 on Michelsberg hill and relocated to its current location during the 1399 siege of Ulm.

The church contains historical artworks, including a crucifixion group attributed to the workshop of medieval sculptor Niklaus Weckmann from the 15th century.

The building serves as both an active Catholic parish church and a concert venue, providing regular religious services and musical performances.

Bishop Joannes Baptista Sproll, who opposed the Nazi regime, maintained connections to this church, commemorated by a sculpture in the garden.
