Gabor shoe

The Gabor family, manufacturers of the legendary, reputable shoes that the whole world, including the great stars, was delighted with, comes from Strzelce Opolskie.

It is here, in the Market Square, in tenement house number 27, in the years 1919-1945, the shop of Pius Gabor, the first of the famous shoemakers' family, was located. Today, right in front of this tenement house, on a small square around which benches have been placed, there is a brass shoe commemorating the famous family, designed and made by students of the Art Institute of the University of Opole. His high heel is densely entwined with the roots in remembrance of the fact that the Gabor family comes from Strzelce Opolskie.

How it working

To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.

STEP 1

You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.

STEP 2

After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.

STEP 3

The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!

STEP 4

Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links

Monuments in cities remind us of the history of places and people, and allude to important events. They are also works of art. Bronze, metal, wood, or concrete transformed into the form of a monumental obelisk attract attention. We enjoy sitting by them, taking photos, and making appointments.
