Venue description

The Gallery of Steel Figures is the first place in the world where steel sculptures are made of elements from the recycling of scrap metal. They started with a table with a glass top, made on the basis of a V8 engine. Today, their collection has 600 figures that can be admired in Poland and Europe. Each figure requires 1 to 8 months of work, while car sculptures require the longest time – during their creation, 4 craftsmen work up to 7,000 man-hours. At the same time, all figures are exclusively hand-made: they do not use castings or heavy machinery. Although it sounds unbelievable, theirs basic tools are simply a welding machine, a burner, a hammer and a trimmer. Thanks to this, each of the works is literally unique.
