Plague column in Kremnica, Baroque plague column in Kremnica, Slovakia.
The triangular monument rises 20 meters high and contains 14 life-sized statues depicting saints, angels, and the Holy Trinity at its summit.
Built between 1765 and 1772, this column replaced an earlier stone memorial from 1711 that commemorated victims of the 1710 plague epidemic.
Artists Dionysius Stanetti and Martin Vögerle created the statues that adorn this Cultural Heritage Monument, representing religious devotion through baroque artistry.
Located in the main square of Kremnica, the column stands near the Museum of Coins and Medals, with paths offering limited access for wheelchairs.
The monument incorporates detailed religious figures on three sides, making it one of the largest plague columns in Central Europe.
