Michał Drzymała (13 September 1857 in Zdroje near Grodzisk Wielkopolski-25 April 1937 in Grabówka) was a Polish peasant, living in the Greater Poland region (or the Grand Duchy of Poznań) under the Prussian rule. He is famous for that after he was refused to build a house on his own land by the Prussian authorities, he bought a circus wagon and turned it into his home. The Drzymała's wagon (Wóz Drzymały) became famous when this case was described by the Polish and European newspapers making fun of the Prussian state.
