Wojtek the Bear – inspired by a true hero!
This is no ordinary bear – this is a bear soldier who actually existed and served in Anders' Army. He helped carry ammunition, was a companion to soldiers, and a symbol of courage and friendship. Today, Wojtek the Bear proudly stands by the Przemyśl Eaglets Bridge, on the Zasań side, right next to the steps leading to the Przemyśl Eaglets Monument.
