Piwożłop i Pieseł Piwosz

Piwożłop and Pieseł Piwosz is a bronze sculpture depicting a dwarf and a French bulldog puppy holding beer mugs outside a restaurant entrance with an attached brewery. The figures are skillfully crafted and stand out for their humorous portrayal and detailed rendering of the characters and their accessories.

The sculpture was designed by artist Beata Zwolańska-Hołod and installed in 2016 as part of Wrocław's collection of dwarf figures. It joins the city's tradition of placing these small bronze sculptures at various locations throughout the Old Town.

This statue connects everyday life with brewing heritage, as it stands right next to a restaurant with its own brewery. The dwarf and dog are seen by visitors as part of local identity that celebrates beer and socializing.

The monument is located at Galeria Wita Stwosza 1-2 and is easy to find, as it sits at the restaurant entrance. Access is straightforward and the figure is visible from outside during daylight hours, so visitors can photograph it anytime.

The names Piwożłop and Pieseł Piwosz were not chosen by artists but were selected by Wrocław residents themselves. This makes the statue special because it is shaped by community voice, and the names carry a direct link to local reality.
