TRNAVA, Slovakia. Stĺp svätého Jozefa


TRNAVA, Slovakia
Námestie Sv. Mikuláša

Stĺp svätého Jozefa [Column of Saint Joseph]. This Baroque monument with its triangular column, is a work of the local sculptor I. Melczer. It was erected in 1731 in gratitude for the cessation of the Black Death that ravaged Europe in previous years. At the top of the column is the figure of Saint Joseph with a flower in hand, and at the base there are angels and statues of Saint Rosalia, Saint Sebastian and San Roch.
