The small pilgrimage church with its magnificent view is surrounded by forest on a hilltop above Wetzelsdorf. A pilgrimage church named St. Johann am Kögelein, dedicated to John the Baptist, was first mentioned in 1507. The church complex stands on an artificial structure, the ground plan of which, however, is not related to the church itself. According to oral tradition, the ruins of a castle once stood on the hilltop where the church now stands. Its name is connected to the image on the high altar. It depicts the two Roman brothers, martyrs and patron saints John and Paul, who were beheaded by the Roman Emperor Julian. The Admont Baroque painter Bartolomeo Altomonte created the ceiling frescoes. Until 1996, the Church of St. John and Paul belonged to Admont Abbey, whose coat of arms is also found on the high altar. Since then, the city of Graz has owned the church. Somewhat hidden behind the church, there's a platform offering a magnificent view of the city of Graz, the Schlossberg hill, and the Schöckl mountain. Besides signs indicating which mountain or direction you're looking at, there are also wooden sun loungers and a few other seats. There are also some benches in front of the church for resting.
