The pillars of the Virgin Mary are a type of free-standing pillars with a Christian theme. They are called Marian pillars .
The building of the pillars of the Virgin Mary was a widespread way of manifesting the faith in Catholic countries, especially in the 17th and 18th centuries. These columns thus became one of the most visible features of Baroque architecture. The Marian pillars were built for the glory of the Virgin Mary, often as a token of gratitude for the end of the plague or other significant help.
