Krasnal Schaeffler

Krasnal Schaeffler is a bronze sculpture located near the Hansel and Gretel houses in the old town district. The figure forms part of a large collection of similar artworks spread throughout the city.

The statue comes from the Orange Alternative movement of the 1980s, when activists painted dwarf images over anti-communist messages on walls. This creative approach mocked government control while allowing art to flourish.

This dwarf belongs to a collection of bronze figures scattered across the city, each one carrying different stories about what Wrocław means to its people.

Finding this location is easy with maps available at the tourist information office or on the website www.krasnale.pl. These resources help visitors explore the complete collection and discover other figures nearby.

Near this figure stand other specialized sculptures, including firefighter dwarves shown performing daily tasks. Together these create a narrative of heroism and everyday work within the city.
