The old column wayside shrine were made and erected here in 16-17th century. The place is for a centuries called "U svaté Anny" (At St Anne) probably that people considered person with Baby Jesus depicted on relief on top of the column as St Anne - granny of the Jesus. For a long time a four old lánden tree were grown here but about ten years ago most of them was seriously damaged during severe windstorm. Instead of them three new one were planted around the shrine.
