Atlas

An old and rather tired looking Atlas. Not just because he's carrying the world but because this statue is in much need of some tender loving care. Let's hope it gets renovated soon. The statue stands on top of a pharmacy building in Ul. Szeroka.

The Apteka Atlas!


Looming high above the main thoroughfare that is Ul.Szeroka is ToruĊ„'s very own Atlas. But wait...that is not a globe that he is carrying...but a ball that simply says 'APTEKA'. 'Apteka' is Polish for 'pharmacy'. And yes you've guessed it there is a pharmacy in that building under him. A real original and classical form of advertising. We like it!
