Wpf – How get a WPF Datagrid with cells that wrap text instead of truncating it

What must be done to get a WPF DataGrid with cells that wrap text instead of truncating it?

Right now when a text is bigger and don't fit in a column the text is truncated and users can't see it value cos the DataGrid's IsReadOnly property is true. What I want is that the text in cells be wrapped and the cell height (NO CELL WIDTH) increased the amount needed to show all the text.

Thanks for your help @H.B., this did the trick for me (alignment is optional):

<DataGrid.Columns>               
    <DataGridTextColumn Header="Wrapped & centered" Binding="{Binding field}">
        <DataGridTextColumn.ElementStyle>
             <Style>                            
                 <Setter Property="TextBlock.TextWrapping" Value="Wrap" />
                 <Setter Property="TextBlock.TextAlignment" Value="Center"/>
             </Style>
         </DataGridTextColumn.ElementStyle>
    </DataGridTextColumn>
</DataGrid.Columns>
