Plague Column

Description

Plague Column in Kutná Hora, also known as Column of the Virgin Mary Immaculate, is located in Šultysova street. It is protected as a cultural heritage.

This baroque plague column was built by the Jesuit sculptor František Baugut. It originated between 1713 and 1715 as a commemoration of the contemporary plague which killed more than a thousand people. The column is decorated by the statue of the Virgin Mary Immaculate and Kutná Hora's typical labor themes (reliefs of miners).
