Sloup Panny Marie v Lokti / Socha Panny Marie Immaculaty
V Lokti nad Ohrí není jen jeden svetecký sloup (na námestí), další, byt podstatne skromnejší, se nachází u vstupu na místní hrad. V knize Mariánské, trojicní a další svetecké sloupy a pilíre v Karlovarském kraji je mu venován prostor stran 162 až 163, jinde se o nem zmínka najít nedá. Jedná se o jednoduchý sloup se sochou Panny Marie (Immaculaty) z Dolního Rychnova na Sokolovsku, odkud byl na hrad v Lokti premísten pri likvidaci obce v dusledku dulní cinnosti. Jednotlivé cásti byli v roce 1973 restaurovány a následne sloup umísten pred pokladnou u vstupu do hradu, kde se nachází dodnes. Socha Panny Marie je z pískovce, zbytek sloupu (schody, podstavce, sloup) je žulový. Z restaurátorské zprávy (František Pašek, Zdenek Šejnost) vyplývá, že stav sloupu i sochy byl žalostný. Jediné, co se o nem vlastne dá zjistit, je skutecnost, že v kartuši podstavce je uvedeno vrocení "ILW 1770".

According to the Bible, Mary, also known as Saint Mary or Virgin Mary, was a Jewish woman of Nazareth in Galilee. She is identified in the New Testament as the mother of Jesus through divine intervention. Christians hold her son Jesus to be Christ (i.e., the messiah) and God the Son Incarnate. Mary (Maryam) also has a revered position in Islam, where a whole chapter of the Qur'an is devoted to her, also describing the birth of Jesus.
The canonical gospels of Matthew and Luke in the New Testament describe Mary as a virgin (Greek: parthénos). Traditionally, Christians believe that she conceived her son miraculously by the agency of the Holy Spirit. Muslims believe that she conceived her son miraculously by the command of God. This took place when she was already betrothed to Joseph and was awaiting the concluding rite of marriage, the formal home-taking ceremony. She married Joseph and accompanied him to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born. Dale Allison states that in ancient Jewish custom, Mary could have been bethrothed at about 12, but does not claim that this did happen in her case. There is no direct evidence of Mary's age at betrothal or in pregnancy.
The Gospel of Luke begins its account of Mary's life with the Annunciation, when the angel Gabriel appeared to her and announced her divine selection to be the mother of Jesus. According to gospel accounts, Mary was present at the Crucifixion of Jesus and is depicted as a member of the early Christian community in Jerusalem. According to Apocryphal writings, she never died but was assumed into Heaven; this is known in Christian teaching as the Assumption.
Mary has been venerated since Early Christianity, and is considered by millions to be the most meritorious saint of the Church. Christians of the Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, Oriental Orthodox Church, Anglican Communion, and Lutheran churches believe that Mary, as Mother of Jesus, is the Mother of God and the Theotokos, literally "Bearer of God". There is significant diversity in the Marian beliefs and devotional practices of major Christian traditions. The Catholic Church holds distinctive Marian dogmas; namely her status as the mother of God, her Immaculate Conception, the perpetual virginity of Mary, and the Assumption of Mary into Heaven. Many Protestants minimize Mary's role within Christianity, based on the argued brevity of biblical references.
