Dreifaltigkeitssäule, Baroque column in Straubing, Germany.
The Dreifaltigkeitssäule is a Baroque column in Straubing that rises skyward with finely carved stone ornaments and religious figures. Its base is decorated with sculptural details that taper toward the top.
The column was erected in the early 1700s after a severe plague, expressing the town's gratitude for survival. This monument reflects how the community immortalized their thanks in stone.
The column is named after the Christian Trinity and stands at the heart of the square where locals gather and visitors pass through. It remains a visible expression of gratitude embedded in the city's everyday landscape.
The column stands in Straubing's main square, easily accessible on foot and surrounded by cafes, shops, and restaurants. The location is clear and straightforward to reach by public transport or walking.
The stonework on the column still shows the handcrafted skill of 18th-century artisans in its original form today. Such fine details are rarely preserved so completely.
