Sousoší Korunování Panny Marie stojí v severní cásti návsi a celem je obráceno k východu, k hlavní komunikaci. Materiálem je pískovec v prírodní barve, výška celé kompozice je asi 5 m. Základnu díla tvorí novodobá betonová podnož na pudorysu ctverce velikosti 4x4 m. Po jejím obvodu obíhá novodobé kamenné zábradlí tvorené 8 nízkými hranolovými neclenenými pilírky, které jsou nahore spojeny rímsou. Na podnoži spocívá architektonicky rešený trojdílný podstavec, tvorený ze trí na sebe kolmých pilíru s vysokými sokly a profilovanými patkami. Dríky pilíru s kanelovanými celními stenami se nahore volutove zavíjejí. Tento útvar vrcholí spolecnou vysokou rímsovou hlavicí. Celní stena podstavce se uprostred konvexne vydouvá a v segmentovém vypnutí je umístena srdcitá kartuš v akantovém orámování s korunkou ve vrcholu. Nápis v jejím poli dnes není citelný. Na podstavci je umísteno pyramidálne komponované sousoší, které je v dolní cásti tvoreno oblakovými útvary, z nichž vlevo nahore vystupuje andílcí hlavicka. Na nich klecí Panna Marie, zobrazená v polovicním profilu a odená v dramaticky zrasený šat. Ruce má sepjaté na prsou. Na její hlavu klade Buh Otec korunu. Pod jeho nahama je umístena velká koule. Vlevo za Pannou Marií sedí Kristus, zobrazený témer frontálne. Vrchol kompozice tvorí holubice Ducha sv. s roztaženými krídly. Nahore ješte vystupuje zlacený recký kríž s rozšírenými rameny.

The material is sandstone in natural color, the height of the whole composition is about 5 m. The base of the work consists of a modern concrete base on the ground plan of a square of size 4x4 m. Around it is circulating modern stone railings made of 8 low prismatic non-pillars, On the base is an architecturally designed three-piece base, consisting of three perpendicular pillars with high plinths and profiled feet. Pillar shafts with cannulated front walls top up volutarily. This formation culminates with a common high ledge. The front wall of the pedestal is convex in the middle and a cordless cartouche in the acanthus frame with a crown at the top is placed in the segment cut. The inscription in its field is not readable today. On the pedestal is a pyramidally composed sculpture, which is formed in the lower part by the cloud formations, from which the upper end of the angel head protrudes.
