Mariensäule

A Mariensäule is a freestanding stone column topped with a figure of the Virgin Mary, a widespread form of Catholic devotional monument across Bavaria. This listed example in Wolfratshausen follows the tradition of Baroque Marian columns erected from the 17th century onward as acts of intercession or thanksgiving. The precise date of construction and its patron are not confirmed by available sources, but the column is a protected Baudenkmal and a fixed feature of the town's public space.
