Hello there! I would like to explain to you what Fredro is all about. The statue of Aleksander Fredro, a national Polish writer, was created in Lviv in 1897. Lviv was located in Poland before the Second World War. After 1945, this land and the city became part of the Soviet Union, and now Lviv belongs to the Ukrainians. After the war, many Poles from Lwów were moved to Wrocław, which was a German city before 1939. The Soviet Union agreed to issue after 1945 Polish national monuments located in the city of Lviv and related to history and culture exclusively in Polish. So we have Fredro monument in Wrocław instead of Frederic William III statue.
In addition, Fredro knew Wrocław; he was here as a "young captain of Polish troops fighting alongside Napoleon", and in 1856 he reportedly came to Wrocław because he wanted to buy a property near the city.
