Column of the Virgin Mary Immaculate in Kutná Hora, Baroque plague column in Kutná Hora, Czech Republic

The Column of the Virgin Mary Immaculate stands in Šultysova street, featuring a statue of Mary at the top and four saints at the base.

František Baugut constructed this memorial between 1713 and 1715 to commemorate over one thousand residents who died during the devastating plague epidemic.

The column displays detailed relief sculptures depicting local mining activities, connecting the monument to the industrial heritage of Kutná Hora.

The monument maintains its original structure in the center of Kutná Hora, near St Barbara's Church and the Sedlec Ossuary, making it accessible for visitors.

The column combines religious symbolism with mining motifs, incorporating cherubs, clouds, and labor themes specific to the local mining community.
