Bronislaw Chromy undertook to embody the ancient Krakow legend in stone. So the sculpture of the Dragon appeared at the walls of Wawel, on the embankment. Moreover, the people of Krakow turned the monument into self-sufficiency mode : ) If you want to see the fire-breathing Dragon, you need to send an SMS to number 7168 with the text "smok" and then he will show you all his abilities (I personally did not send SMS, but I watched how tourists actively send SMS and the dragon works in response).
Legend of the Wawel Dragon. In ancient times, an evil dragon lived in these places, devouring innocent girls. And no one could do anything with him until a smart young man was found. He cooked a lamb stuffed with sulphur, resin and hot coals. The dragon swallowed the treat and rushed to the river to drink the heat. Drank, drank and burst. Good triumphed, and the Dragon became a real symbol of Krakow - today it is depicted on almost all tourist paraphernalia of the city.
