Near the bridge of the Slovak National Uprising is one of the most beautiful squares in Bratislava - Rybna. Its dominant is the high column of the Holy Trinity, created in the Baroque style. The reason for its installation was the promise given to the Lord by the inhabitants of the city during the longest plague epidemic in the history of Bratislava, which lasted from 1711 to 1713. She took the lives of 3.860 people. Bratislava was helped to get rid of the plague by the Archbishop of Esztergom, Hungarian Primate, Cardinal Christian August Saski, whose merits are marked on the bas-relief installed on the base of the column.→
