Holy Trinity statue on Vagan

Sacral small monument

After the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the village also experienced difficulties caused by the social and economic crisis. The low wages of agricultural workers and servants and unemployment made it difficult for families to make a living. This explains why the number of emigrants in Vága was high compared to other villages in the district. In 1906, nine people emigrated from the village, most of them to America, in 1912 we know of thirteen emigrant residents, and in 1914 Julianna Varga, Lajosné Jalsovszky and Paulína Bugyinszky emigrated. ; ; The statue of the Holy Trinity was erected in 1914 for the greater glory of God by the Catholic faithful of Vága who emigrated to America, with the contribution of the locals. ; ; Church celebrations related to the Holy Trinity statue: Holy Trinity Sunday procession, Lord's Day procession, Sacred Heart Sunday procession, Christ's Vigil on Good Friday. ; ; &nbsp,
