History

The plague devastated in Arad several times between 1708 and 1741. Many people died, and in 1732 the people of Arad vowed to erect a statue to the Holy Trinity where they would pray every year and to make a pilgrimage to Máriaradna once a year. The statue was erected in 1746. The statue still visible today was made in 1901 and restored in 2007.
