Pomnik Pála Telekiego w Krakowie, Monument to Hungarian Prime Minister at Provincial Public Library, Kraków, Poland.
Pomnik Pála Telekiego w Krakowie is a bronze sculpture located at the entrance of the Provincial Public Library in central Kraków, depicting a Hungarian count dressed in traditional dolman attire. The statue features careful attention to detail in capturing the subject's dignified expression and formal clothing style.
This memorial was created to honor Count Teleki, who served as Hungarian Prime Minister and aided Poland militarily during the Polish-Soviet War. His refusal to align with German aggression marked him as a significant figure in Central European resistance during that era.
The monument symbolizes the bond between Poland and Hungary through Teleki's stand against German pressure. Visitors experience this solidarity through the visible presence of a Hungarian leader honored in Polish territory.
The monument is located at 1 Rajska Street in central Kraków directly at the library entrance, making it easily accessible on foot. It can be viewed at any time since it stands in public space outside the building.
Sculptor Stefan Dousa created this work with meticulous attention to the details of Hungarian traditional dress. The unveiling ceremony in 2021 brought together communities from both nations to mark this shared historical recognition.
