In 1740 a plague swept through Nové Zámky. After surviving the danger, the inhabitants had a limestone statue of the Holy Trinity erected; it was completed in 1749. This group of Baroque artistic sculptures is decorated with Rococo elements and offers a picture of the standard of contemporary sculpture in public space. The sculpture group has been restored and relocated several times (in 1827, 1876 and 1929), most recently renovated in 1993 and then moved back to the Main Square. The statue was last consecrated in October 1993.
