Most towns in the region gathered rainwater in cisterns below their squares. Not so here as Onofrio brought water from the Trebišnjica River 7 miles to the northwest using aqueducts such as this one visible inside the city and most likely feeding the uphill Jesuit square. Onofrio's feeder split outside the city in order to provide the Pile area workshops to the west with water. This one entered the city at its highest and northernmost point where the Minceta tower would eventually rise.
