The street ends with Roosevelt (formerly Sasky) Bridge, built 1849-1851 by master-builder Martin Stelzer on the site of an old ford across the River Mze.
It linked up with the then completed Karlovarska (Karlovy Vary) highway.

The bridge was a gallery of ornamental sculpture, brought here from other locations. In the middle there is a large crucifix from the mid-19th century, cast in the Plasy ironworks.

In the 1980s the bridge was renovated and the front part nearest the town rebuilt.
