[1][2] The monuments allude to the Polish tongue twister poem Chrząszcz by Jan Brzechwa, which the town is widely associated with among the Poles.
[3] In fact, the statues present an insect from the orthoptera order (grasshopper or a cricket), rather than a beetle,[4] a subject of a trick question at the game show Milionerzy (a Polish version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?)
[5] In September 2002, at Klukowskiego Street in Szczebrzeszyn, at the foot of the Castle Hill, a statue was unveiled of an amphomorphic beetle playing on a fiddle.
[1][2] It consists of a bronze statue of an anthropomorphic beetle wearing a dinner suit and a top hat, and playing on a fiddle.
It has a height of about 2 m. It was 70% funded by the EU withiun the project "Z kulturalną wizytą w chrząszczowym grodzie" ("On a cultural visit to the beetle town").
