THE PLAGUE MEMORIAL (KUŽNO ZNAMENJE), SREBRNIK Location: Bistrica ob Sotli Category: Skulptures, monuments and memorials

On the crossing of village roads is a stone pillar with decoratively bevelled edges. It is concluded by a concave block with the year 1749 engraved. There is also a chapel and a stone roof with a cross. Even in 1941, the already worn-out paint-work was still visible in the niches.

According to tradition, it is a ‘plague memorial’. It was last renovated in 1992, when it got new foundations, a new base and a reinforced pillar.
