Story
Cermigiusz has found the perfect life — he has been relaxing in a bathtub for the last thirty years and has absolutely no plans to get out. Rumour among the other dwarfs is that he is the most snobbish character in all of Wrocław, with exceptionally refined taste in bathroom fixtures. You will find him at ul. Strzegomska 38-40, outside Cermag, which claims to be Wrocław's oldest bathroom showroom. Cermigiusz has inspected every model they carry, and he has opinions about all of them.
History & Significance
Cermigiusz was commissioned by Cermag sp. z o.o., a bathroom and sanitary fittings showroom with a long history in Wrocław. The dwarf's name is a play on the company name 'Cermag'. He is located in front of the Cermag showroom at ul. Strzegomska 38-40 in the Fabryczna district.
