Wiesen is a community in the Aschaffenburg district in the Regierungsbezirk of Lower Franconia (Unterfranken) in Bavaria, Germany and a member of the Verwaltungsgemeinschaft (municipal association) of Schöllkrippen. It has around 1,000 inhabitants.
The community lies in the Mittelgebirge Spessart and has one Gemarkung (traditional rural cadastral area), also named Wiesen.
The former Electoral Mainz Amt was secularized at Prince Primate von Dalberg’s behest in 1803 and made part of his newly formed Principality of Aschaffenburg, with which the Amt passed in 1814 (by this time it had become a department of the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt) to the Kingdom of Bavaria. In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria, the current community came into being with the Gemeindeedikt ("Municipal Edict") of 1818.
Within community limits in 1970, 1,053 inhabitants were counted, in 1987 1,050 and in 2000 1,152.
