In mid-19th c. the marketplace in Ciechanowiec was changed into a priest’s garden in which a monument to Kluk was standing. During German occupation, the military police who lived in the presbytery, decided to destroy the statue. However, the prudent inhabitants of Ciechanowiec managed to obtain a permit to move the monument somewhere else. A few craftsmen transferred it whole to the square near the church, where it is standing up till now. In the same place another statue can be seen, of St. Florian, the patron saint of firefighters. The sculpture was made of sandstone in a neo-Gothic style.
