Initialy, there was only a figural column of Virgin Mary. In 1743 the famous sculptor Josef Straub brought the Memorial into present shape. The centerpiece of the Memorial is still a column with Virgin Mary, but the pedestal is surrounded by the saints invoked against the dreaded plague: St. Francis of Assisis, Bostjan, Jacob the Elder, Anton of Padova, Rok, and St. Francis Xavier. The pedestal is in the shape of an altar. Above the altar table is an oval cartouche with a Latin inscription.
