Lonely Planet review for Schweik Statue

The odd little bronze likeness of a soldier sitting on a bench in the centre of ul 3 Maja is the Schweik Statue, representing the antihero of Czech writer Jaroslav Hašek's polemical novel The Good Soldier Schweik (1923). According to the book, Schweik (or Švejk) visited Sanok on 15 July 1915. Fame at last.
