KołobrzeskieMarians
As Wrocław has its gnomes, Zielona Gór has „bachusiki, what is awesome entertainment for Tourists, Kołobrzeg has the „Marians”. They are small, funny sculptures of seagulls made of brass situated in the different parts of the city (at the seaside or in the city centre). We can meet Marian – a tourist or Marian - skateboarder. However, the newest Marian is a volunteer of The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. Jerzy Owsiak was on the opening of this statue.
