Sloup Proměnění Páně, Baroque Holy Trinity column at Resselovo náměstí, Chrudim, Czech Republic.

The sandstone column features multiple tiers adorned with statues of saints, biblical figures, and cherubs surrounding the central Transfiguration scene.

Construction began in 1719 following the last plague epidemic, with Giovanni Batista Bulla's initial design modified before completion in 1732.

The monument combines religious symbolism with artistic elements, including statues of St. Michael, St. John Nepomuk, and other Christian figures.

The column stands in front of the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, with four fountains at its base featuring lion head spouts.

The structure incorporates a cloud-like spiral design instead of the originally planned pyramidal shape, distinguishing it from other religious columns.
