Krasnale Wroclaviaki

The Wrocławiaki are over 400 small bronze figures spread across building facades, squares, and street corners throughout the city. They vary in size and position, some appearing to climb or sit, others frozen in motion, with each one crafted in fine detail.

These figures began in the 1980s as a response to dwarf graffiti from the Orange Alternative, a movement against communist rule. The art project later formalized these small figures and turned them into a permanent part of the city.

The bronze figures show different jobs, crafts, and everyday moments from local life and traditions. As you walk through the city, you encounter them on walls and in corners, each one reflecting something about how people here live and work.

Maps and information about individual figures are available at tourist information centers, and mobile apps can help you find them. The best approach is simply to walk the streets and spot them as you go, since they pop up in surprising places throughout the city.

New statues are added each year as local businesses, organizations, and artists commission new bronze figures to tell their own stories. This ongoing growth means return visitors always find something fresh to discover throughout the city.
