Silesiusz, Bronze dwarf statue in Plac Grunwaldzki, Poland

The Silesiusz dwarf statue stands as a bronze figure near the Hansel & Gretel houses, displaying intricate details and craftsmanship in its design.

Installed on October 30, 2017, this statue joins over 300 dwarf sculptures across Wrocław that commemorate the anti-communist Orange Alternative movement of the 1980s.

The statue represents the Polish folklore character krasnoludek and continues the tradition of public art installations that define Wrocław's street landscape.

Visitors can locate Silesiusz using specialized dwarf maps available at tourist offices for 6 złoty, enabling a systematic exploration of the city's bronze figures.

The statue forms part of an extensive outdoor art collection that transforms Wrocław's streets into an open-air gallery of miniature bronze sculptures.
