Brno-Jundrov

Brno-Jundrov is one of Brno's 29 city districts, located in the western part of the city on the right bank of the Svratka river. It covers an area of 415 hectares and is home to roughly 4,600 residents. For travelers looking to see a quieter, less touristy side of Brno, this district offers a glimpse of everyday local life away from the crowded historic core.

Where is Brno-Jundrov located?

The district sits west of Brno's city center, on the right bank of the Svratka, a river that runs through the entire metropolitan area and, in many places, forms the natural boundaries between individual districts. This riverside position, set apart from the densest parts of downtown, gives the area a more low-key character.

How big is this part of the city?

Brno-Jundrov covers 415 hectares, or about 4.15 square kilometers. That's a modest slice of Brno compared with the city as a whole, but large enough to include both residential areas and other types of land use. With around 4,600 inhabitants, population density here is moderate — nothing close to the crowding typical of the central districts.

What territories make up Brno-Jundrov?

Administratively, the district consists of most of the cadastral territory of Jundrov, plus a small northwestern part of the cadastral territory of Pisárky. This distinction — between cadastral boundaries and the administrative boundaries of city districts — is typical of how Brno is structured, where administrative units are often drawn differently than the historical cadastral areas they're built from.

When was this administrative district established?

The district in its current administrative form was established on 24 November 1990. That date fits into the broader reorganization of Brno's administrative division around the turn of the 1990s, when the city took shape into the 29 districts it has today.

Who might find this area worth visiting?

Brno-Jundrov isn't on any list of must-see Brno attractions, but for visitors who want to experience the city beyond its historic center, its riverside setting and calmer atmosphere can be a worthwhile addition to a longer stay. It's also a useful reference point when planning walking or cycling routes along the Svratka, which connects different parts of Brno along its course.
