The Angels ({{langx|sl|Angeli}}) are a group of three monumental, primitive busts, located in a park near Kalvarija Hill in the city of Maribor, Slovenia. The statues are made of colored concrete and are approximately three metres tall. Each is a different color (pale green, pale yellow, pink) and has slightly different facial proportions. They represent angels, a common theme of their sculptor Lučka Koščak.[http://www.luckakoscak.com/ Lučka Koščak web site]

They were erected in 2004, with the support of the municipality of Maribor and the Sculpture Institute from Ljubljana. Local residents have nicknamed them "Sveta Trojica" (Holy Trinity).[http://www.delo.si/index.php?sv_path=43,49&so=Delo&da=20060930&pa=17&ty=html Delo.si news story]
