On a fenced private plot (about 1.5 meters from the fence, clearly visible) is a half-length stone statue of Mary standing on a pedestal.
The pedestal of the statue, which shows typical Baroque style features, consists of two parts: a 90 cm square column with a cornice and an 80 cm volute (volute: arched building element), and a second part with a cornice. Mary holds the Baby Jesus in her arms, behind them is a painted halo surrounded by stars. In the lower part of the pedestal, in a slightly recessed mirror, there is a monogram of Mary and the year 1774, and in the upper part, in a mirror similar to the previous one, there is a monogram of Mary and an inscription.
