This house, as well as the opposite, is located in places where in the past stood one of the four main gates to the city - Malotická gate Preserved medieval walls began to be built in the second quarter of the 13th century - at a time when Kouřim itself was being established as a royal city. Today's appearance of the preserved fortifications, however, comes from its reconstruction after the middle of the 15th century. Until the 16th century, a double strip of walls spread around the town, complete with bastions, a moat and a rampart. In the middle of the individual sections of the inner fortification belt, high prismatic city gates were built on four sides of the world: Pražská, Kolínská, Malotická and Olešecká and below the church fortna, later called Dřevařská or Katova. Only the northern Prague Gate has survived, which escaped efforts to revive the city after the great fire in 1811, when the town hall decided to gradually loosen the city's grip, which gradually fell victim to the Oleš Gate in 1840, the Kolín Gate in 1841 and finally in 1875 i Malotická brána. After the Hussite wars, all gates were strengthened by the construction of the so-called fortress, of which only the rest of the half-cylindrical tower of the former Malotická gate in the basement of Mr. Svoboda's smithy No. 136 1.5 m thick walls are preserved from the level of the cellar, during the repairs of the house was discovered and preserved loophole).
