U Černé věže Street gradually leads us to the Mill Channel, which is (probably) a manmade moat built to protect the town from the east and north. Crossing the bridge will take us to the town park. But now we will return and walk along narrow Hradební Street to the right. Hradební Street will lead us to Krajinská Street.
