"The Wengen Kirche (Church)"

Single men were not allowed to become colonists, so they had to find a bride among the many young maidens and be married before they could board the barges at Vienna to continue their voyage down the Danube to their destination.  If your ancestors were Catholic and married there, their marital records will be found at the Wengen Kirche in Ulm.  The church was destroyed during WWII.  There is a new church erected in its place.  Painting in the office of the parish.
