That Brno has only one surviving city gate is common knowledge. Since 2004 this information is no longer accurate. The Měnínská Gate gained its "colleague" with the discovery of a fragment of the city gate in the park between Běhounská and Roosevelt Streets.

In connection with the exploration of the underground in the park near the Janáček Theatre, a probe in the lawn revealed a stone lining in the brickwork. This interesting surprise was hidden at a depth of only 30 centimetres under the grass. When the dirt was uncovered to a further depth of two metres, a stone threshold and lining with a trough for a hinge "hinge" was discovered. However, the opposite lining was missing. It was only after digging a three and a half metre trench that the same fragment of the lining was uncovered, even with the preserved metal bed of the drawbridge.

At that time there was no doubt that the entire lower third of the original medieval city gate had been discovered. How the gate looked at the time when it was part of the city walls can be seen in the painting "The Siege of Brno by the Swedes in 1645", which is part of the exhibition at Špilberk. Its shape and size can be deduced from it. It had a rectangular profile 7 metres high and 3.5 metres wide. A deep moat is also drawn in front of the gate. Its depth was also verified directly at the site. In fact, the castle wall is completely preserved in front of the threshold of the discovered gate.

The unique discovery of the so-called Běhounský forearm was also the inspiration for the idea of its appropriate presentation. The gate could be suitably integrated into the city park and its function presented in its historical context. However, how long this will take, and if the presentation of this important find will even take place, depends primarily on the representatives of our city. After several centuries, Brno citizens would have a unique opportunity to walk through this gate again.
