The Plague Column or Immaculata is a Baroque plague column in Košice, Slovakia. The column is situated in a small park and commemorates the gratitude to Mary for an end to the plague epidemic from 1709 and 1710. It was erected at the place of medieval gallows at Fő utca in 1723. A plaque on the base claims that the relics of Saint Valentine are hidden beneath the structure. It is a 14-metre-high (46 ft) column on a stone basement with sculptures of Saint Joseph, Saint Sebastian and Saint Ladisla
