Depicted late-Baroque stone relief with bear decorates entrance portal of Baroque Nedvedovský House (Nedvedovský dum), one of valuable burgher houses in historic centre of Royal town Slaný.

Nedvedovský House (house N°9), two-storeyed Baroque burgher house, is result of principal reconstruction and joining of two older Gothic-Renaissance buildings in 1779. The house is interesting by preserved Renaissance corner oriel and also by beautiful Baroque entrance portal decorated by stone relief with bear (name of house is derived from Czech word for bear: medved or nedved) and the date of house' principal rebuilding. The building was reconstructed also in 1893 and this date is in small shield held by the bear.
