Lonely Planet review for Holy Trinity Column

Across Horní Náměstí, Holy Trinity Column is impossible to miss. A baroque mélange of gold and grey, its monumental form is reminiscent of the Buddhist shrine of Borobudur in Indonesia. Built between 1716 and 1754 to a design by V Render, a local sculptor, it is supposedly the biggest single baroque sculpture in Central Europe.In 2000, the column was awarded an inscription on Unesco's World Heritage list.

On most days a delightful nun will explain to you the meaning of the interior sculptures in a variety of languages.
