Katova ulička, Medieval street in Kadaň, Czech Republic

The narrow street connects the Old Town center with the Hospital suburb through an ancient stone passage between houses 76 and 77.

Built in the early 14th century as part of the first city wall system, this passage served as the sole nighttime entrance after other gates closed.

The street received its official name in 2013, reflecting its connection to the executioner's house and the rich local medieval traditions.

The passage measures approximately 50 meters in length and reaches its narrowest point at 66.1 centimeters, making it accessible only for single-file walking.

The street functioned as a drainage system, channeling excess water from three fountains in the main square to the moat and Bystricky stream.
