In 1755, the resident of Cífer, Jura Slowak, had a statue of St. Vendelín erected on a site called Hliník. It was first wooden and then made of stone in 1773. On a stone pedestal with a profiled head, there is a column of square cross-section topped by a profiled Tuscan head, on which stands the figure of St. Vendelín, the patron saint of peasants. At its feet, it has an attribute - an animal, which indicates that it is a protector of domestic animals. On the column is the inscription: Jura Slowack 1773
