The gate is the torso of a baroque fence. To the north of the church, in the line of the today demolished Baroque enclosure wall, stands a separate gate, opened in the middle by a massive segmental opening, with two supporting side pillars with the presented cornice pilaster. At the center of the niche arched emphasis console, which bears the central statue of St. Jan Nepomucký, located in the axis of the forked shield. The figure of the saint is of sublime size, of the usual clothing, a canonical biret on his head, holding a large cross in both hands, supported by a martyr's branch.
