Seasons of plague and epidemics that had been overcome were an opportunity to express gratitude to the Holy Trinity. In 1736, the citizens of Krems commissioned a Trinity column from the sculptor Josef Matthias Götz, which was to be built on the newly designed square where the castle courtyard used to be (today Trinity Square).

In many places there are silent witnesses to the "historical" handling of this "scourge of God" such as epidemics and epidemics, including in Krems on Dreifaltigkeitsplatz.
In 1736, the citizens of Krems wanted to thank their patron saints and the Holy Trinity for protecting them from various dangers and ask for further protection. The Passau sculptor Josef Matthias Götz received a "contract" for 1,600 guilders. For this purpose, he was to erect a statue of the Trinity made of good Eggenburg stone at the point where the castle courtyard had previously been removed. In 1738 it was finished
