Gaugan, Dwarf statue in Stare Miasto, Wrocław, Poland.
Gaugan is a small bronze dwarf figure located in the Old Town district of Wrocław as part of a large collection scattered throughout the streets. The statue can be found on walls, steps, and corners, positioned among the city's medieval architecture and busy pedestrian routes.
The dwarf collection began in 2005, inspired by the Orange Alternative movement that used art to resist oppression during the 1980s. The first figures were installed to honor this chapter of grassroots creative protest in the city's history.
The dwarf figures in this collection represent different professions, characters, and moments from city life that matter to locals. Walking through the streets, you can notice what each figure is doing or wearing, which tells you something about Wrocław's identity.
To find this figure, walk slowly through the Old Town streets and look carefully at walls, steps, and low corners where statues are often perched. Many visitors enjoy searching for them on foot, making it a casual exploration activity that works best on a leisurely stroll.
Each dwarf figure in this collection was created by a different artist, which means every statue has its own style and character. Over the years, new figures have been added by various artists, turning the search for them into an ongoing game for residents and visitors alike.
