Novotného lávka, Footbridge and street in Old Town, Czech Republic
The iron pedestrian bridge connects the edges of Vltava River near Charles Bridge, providing passage between key locations in Prague's historical center.
The site originally featured ten water mills in 1396, and a wooden water tower was constructed in 1489 to supply water to the Old Town.
The Bedrich Smetana Museum, established in 1936 in the former waterworks building, exhibits collections about the Czech composer's musical contributions.
The location offers direct walking access to Charles Bridge, the Old Town, and numerous restaurants, making it central for exploring Prague's main attractions.
The structure received its name in 1887 from Karel Novotný, a miller who installed the iron footbridge on the southern section.
