Glis can look back on a long history as a place of pilgrimage. The cemetery and pilgrimage church can be visited with a guide. During the tour, information is provided that is not only exciting for those interested in religion. Culture and architecture fans will also get their money's worth.
The meeting point for the tour is in front of the entrance to the parish church. After a welcome and introduction, the tour begins. During the short walk around the church, you will learn, for example, about the location of the church, its origins up to the present-day church, the stained glass windows and the cemetery. Via the "Golden Gate", as the side portal is also known, the group reaches the interior of the church, where the tour ends with information about the central aisle and the altars.
