Krasnal Powitalnik, Bronze dwarf statue in Stare Miasto, Poland.
Krasnal Powitalnik is a small bronze figure with human features located on the streets of Wrocław's old town. It belongs to a collection of more than 400 similar statues placed at different corners and squares throughout the historic quarter.
The statue was installed in 2007 and is part of a movement that began in the 1980s as artistic protest against political oppression. This collection of dwarfs has since grown into a cultural landmark of the city.
This bronze figure takes its name from a welcoming greeting and symbolizes the friendly character of the city. It stands as part of a living street art tradition that shapes the appearance of the old town.
The statue is easily accessible on foot in the old town and is located in a wheelchair-accessible area. Visitors can use city maps to navigate or join organized walking tours to discover multiple figures in sequence.
Unlike many public artworks, each of these figures has its own name and distinct personality, making every discovery feel special. The collection continues to grow as new statues are regularly added and both artists and citizens contribute to expanding it.
