Originally, after the town's founding, Trinity Square was part of Zwettl's main square, which at that time stretched as an extensive triangular plaza from the townhouses behind the Hundertwasser Fountain to the level of the Hausleitner house above the "Zur Goldenen Rose" inn. The construction of houses along the lower Landstraße, the so-called "Grätzl," significantly narrowed the main square, and the addition of the cross street eventually divided it into two squares.

During the Baroque period, people everywhere were eager to express their gratitude for overcoming the plague years and the Turkish Wars by erecting plague or Trinity columns. In 1727, the pillory in the upper square was replaced by the richly sculpted sandstone column created by Kaspar Högl of Eggenburg. During the last renovation in 1998, extensive environmental damage to the figures was repaired, and the entire column was painted a light yellow. The four life-size statues are, in the center at the front, the Immaculate Conception; to her left, St. Sebastian (pierced by five arrows); to her right, St. Roch (pointing to the plague boil on his thigh); and St. Florian (holding a flag in one hand and a bucket of water in the other). The iron fountain in the immediate vicinity of the Trinity Column is a gift from the then-mayor, Eugen Beck, of the twin town of Plochingen near Stuttgart.

The Lainsitz, Lužnice in the Czech Republic, is a tributary of the Vltava in Austria and the Czech Republic. Its total length is about 200 kilometers, 43 of which are in Austria. However, the German name in Bohemia was not Lainsitz, but Luschnitz. [Wikipedia]

Zwettl has a beautiful town centre and the main square is super beautiful. Unfortunately, the many cars and noisy traffic spoil the beautiful picture...

Great photo opportunities, well worth seeing and not much going on.

Nice hut at the summit of Nebelstein, also recommended for overnight stays.

Unfortunately closed in winter.

The core of the four town houses Nos. 9, 10, 11 and 12 on the main square, which form a closed row, date back to the 16th century and shape the image of the center of the city.
