"On historical trails to the Rochus Chapel" – guided tour

You will learn how the people of Wangen dealt with their faith in past centuries and visit the Rochus Chapel, which is only accessible as part of a guided tour. Meeting point: in front of the tourist office, Bindstr. 10, 88239 Wangen im Allgäu From St. Martin's Church, the route leads along Paradiesstraße to the "Alten Gottesacker" (old cemetery). The highlight of this tour is a visit to the Rochus Chapel. From the outside, it appears rather simple. But a true treasure immediately captivates the viewer when they step over the threshold: the slightly vaulted wooden ceiling with 66 painted panels dating from 1598. An unknown artist has depicted the life and work of Jesus and the apostles in the form of a picture Bible. This tour can also be booked as a group tour.
