Jedyneczka, Bronze dwarf statue in Ołbin district, Wrocław, Poland.
Jedyneczka is a bronze dwarf statue located in the Ołbin district of Wrocław. The figure measures approximately 25 centimeters in height and displays detailed craftsmanship with a characteristic patinated bronze finish.
The statue was installed on March 4, 2022, continuing a tradition that began in 2001 with Papa Dwarf. This movement emerged as an artistic tribute to the Orange Alternative, which resisted communist rule.
The name "Jedyneczka" means "only child" and reflects Polish folklore and local storytelling traditions. This figure is part of a living collection of dwarf sculptures that shapes the streetscape and offers visitors everyday art moments.
The statue is accessible year-round and stands at street level where it is easy to spot. Specialized dwarf maps are available at tourist information centers and help locate multiple figures throughout the city.
The project comprises over 800 dwarf statues that have transformed Wrocław into an open-air art gallery. This collection turns art lovers and tourists into treasure hunters discovering hidden works in unexpected corners of the city.
