The Marian Column is located in the middle of the church square, in the immediate vicinity of the Church of the Finding of the Cross, in the central part of the urban monument protection area of the town of Frýdlant.

However, this column originally stood on the Frýdlant market square (today T. G. Masaryk Square), where the townspeople Tobias Stracke and his son Joseph Stracke had it erected as a gift to the people who survived the plague epidemic. The column was moved in 1898 according to the city council resolution of March 19, 1897.

The work itself was created by Andreas Dubke, the sculptor from Zákupy, in 1723 in the spirit of the Baroque.

It is the traditional style of the “Mary’s columns”, i.e. H. on a low step there is a slender prism-shaped base with volutes - consoles, cornices and statues. The statues represent St. Anna, St. Joachim, St. Joseph and St. Jan Evangelist. The high, slender shaft with a composite capital rests on the base of the column. At the top of the column is the statue of the Immaculata (Virgin Mary). The material used for this column was an ochre-gray medium-grain sandstone, probably from East Bohemian quarries.
