About the monument
It was designed by the Gdańsk sculptor Stanisław Radwański. Marcinkowski stands in a long coat of the period, with a cane in his hand, on a tall granite plinth.
The inscription on the plinth reads: “Karol Marcinkowski – creator of organic work”.
Good to know
Marcinkowski initiated the building of the Hotel Bazar, a centre of Polish life in 19th-century Poznań.
Next to it are the Dolphin Fountain and the post office building. A second monument to Marcinkowski stands in front of the 1st Secondary School on ul. Bukowska.
