Centrostaluś, Bronze dwarf statue in Lipa Piotrowska, Wrocław, Poland.
Centrostaluś is a bronze dwarf figure located in Lipa Piotrowska with carefully detailed features etched into its metallic surface. The sculpture stands around 30 centimeters tall and displays the distinctive characteristics that define this collection of city sculptures.
This statue was installed on February 7, 2014, as part of a collection that started in 2005 with five initial dwarf figures scattered across the city. The project expanded significantly over the following years to become a citywide tradition.
This figure is part of Wrocław's dwarf collection, which grew from the Orange Alternative movement that used small figures as a form of peaceful protest during communist times. Today visitors can explore how these statues have become woven into the city's everyday landscape and identity.
The statue is located in Lipa Piotrowska and can be visited while walking through the neighborhood at any time. Maps showing the locations of all dwarfs throughout the city are available at tourist offices to help plan a self-guided exploration.
This figure is one of more than 800 dwarf sculptures found throughout Wrocław, with each one representing a different aspect or activity of the city. The collection continues to grow as new figures are regularly added to the streets.
