Jowatek, Dwarf statue in Nadodrze, Poland.

The bronze figure of Jowatek stands at the intersection of streets in Nadodrze, featuring detailed craftsmanship and expressive facial characteristics.

The statue, installed on May 18, 2017, joins hundreds of other dwarf sculptures that emerged from the anti-communist Orange Alternative movement of the 1980s.

Jowatek represents the continuation of Wrocław's tradition of placing small bronze dwarfs throughout the city as markers of community identity and resistance.

The statue remains accessible during district operating hours from Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 3:30 PM, with unrestricted Saturday visits.

This bronze figure stands among over 400 dwarfs scattered across Wrocław, each telling different stories about the neighborhood and city traditions.
