Metrolog, Dwarf statue in Szczepin, Poland.
Metrolog is a bronze dwarf statue representing the science of measurement, situated in the Szczepin neighborhood of Wrocław as a public artwork. The figure is one of many dwarf sculptures scattered throughout the city's streets that form part of its distinctive urban character.
The statue was created in 2019, continuing a tradition of dwarf sculptures that began appearing in Wrocław in the early 2000s. This movement gradually transformed the city's appearance and made dwarf figures a recognizable symbol of the place.
The figure represents how the city weaves scientific themes into its street art, making measurement and precision into something people encounter in everyday walks. This reflects Wrocław's approach to turning intellectual ideas into public experiences that everyone can enjoy.
The statue is located in the Szczepin district along Tkacka street and is easy to reach on foot while exploring the neighborhood. The best way to experience it is by walking through the area, as this allows you to also find other dwarf figures scattered throughout the district.
The figure carries a measuring instrument or scale as a symbolic element, distinguishing it from other dwarf sculptures in the city with its focus on the science of measurement. This detail makes it memorable and gives visitors a direct connection to what it represents.
