Zdrowodziej

Zdrowodziej is a small bronze sculpture positioned near a landmark building in the Old Town, sitting at ground level where passersby can easily spot it. The figure depicts a tiny human form and invites visitors to pause and observe the fine details of the casting.

This statue was installed in 2022 as part of an artistic series rooted in a creative protest movement from the 1980s. That movement used humor and small artistic gestures to challenge the political system of the time.

This bronze figure is part of a decades-long artistic tradition that has transformed how people experience the city streets and discover hidden corners. Visitors and locals alike often pause to photograph these small statues or ask about their origins.

The figure is easy to overlook since it sits at ground level and measures just a few inches tall. Walking slowly through the area and paying attention to the pavement helps ensure you spot it.

Though small enough to almost miss, this statue draws dozens of photographers daily who share their photos on social media and with friends. This tiny bronze has unexpectedly become a focal point that far exceeds what its small stature might suggest.
