"On Historical Trails to the Rochus Chapel" – Guided Tour

You will learn how the people of Wangen have engaged with their faith over the past centuries and visit the Rochus Chapel, which is only accessible as part of guided tours. Meeting point: in front of the Tourist Information Office, Bindstr. 10, 88239 Wangen im Allgäu. From St. Martin's Church, the path leads along Paradiesstraße to the "Old God's Acre." The highlight of this tour is the visit to the Rochus Chapel. From the outside, it appears rather simple. However, a true treasure captivates the viewer immediately upon crossing the threshold: it is the slightly vaulted wooden ceiling adorned with 66 painted panels from the year 1598. An unknown artist has depicted the life and works of Jesus and the apostles in the form of a picture Bible. This tour can also be booked as a group tour.
