Marian columns are religious monuments depicting Virgin Mary on the top, often built in thanksgiving for the ending of a plague (plague columns) or for some other reason. The purpose of the Holy Trinity columns was usually simply to celebrate the church and the faith, though the plague motif could sometimes play its role in their erection as well. Erecting religious monuments in the form of a column surmounted by a figure or a Christian symbol was a gesture of public faith that flourished in the Catholic countries of Europe especially in the 17th and 18th centuries. Thus they became one of the most visible features of Baroque architecture. This usage also influenced some Eastern Orthodox Baroque architecture.

  • Colunas marianas são monumentos religiosos construídos em homenagem à Virgem Maria, geralmente em agradecimento ao fim de um surto de peste — conhecidas como Colunas da peste — ou por alguma outra graça recebida. Já as colunas da Santíssima Trindade tinham simplesmente o objetivo de comemorar a igreja e a fé católica, mas o tema da peste também foi importante na sua concepção. A construção de uma coluna encimada por uma figura ou símbolo cristão era um gesto de fé público bastante comum em países católicos da Europa, especialmente nos séculos XVII e XVIII, o que fez destas colunas um dos mais visíveis símbolos da arquitetura barroca. Seu uso também influenciou a arquitetura barroca ortodoxa. (pt)
  • Sloupy Panny Marie a Nejsvětější Trojice shrnuje dva typy volně stojících sloupů, tedy mariánské a trojiční sloupy, jejichž budování bylo rozšířeným způsobem manifestace víry v katolických zemích zejména v 17. a 18. století a staly se jedním z nejviditelnějších znaků barokní architektury. (cs)
