Krasnal Czarownice Tekla i Martynka, Dwarf statue at Mostek Czarownic, Stare Miasto, Poland.

Two bronze dwarf figures, Tekla and Martynka, stand on the balustrade of the Bridge of Witches connecting the towers of St. Mary Magdalene Cathedral.

The statues, installed in 2019, continue the tradition of Wrocław's dwarf monuments that originated from the Orange Alternative anti-communist movement of the 1980s.

The figures represent characters from Polish folklore about a girl named Tekla who was sentenced to sweep the bridge nightly with her helper Martynka.

Located in the Old Town district, these sculptures are accessible daily from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM and include an information plaque explaining their story.

These dwarfs belong to a collection of over 400 similar statues spread throughout Wrocław, each telling different stories about the city's history.
