Then, until 1976, Žebětín with its entire territory formed an independent district with its own local national committee, which was first called Brno XVI-Žebětín,[3] but as of May 1, 1972 was renamed Brno-Žebětín.

[4] From July 15, 1976 to November 23, 1990, Žebětín was part of the Brno II municipal district.

Žebětín lost the eastern edge of its territory, which included, among other things, a grove, and on the other hand it acquired parcel number 2957 from Kohoutovice.

On February 19, 2015, the new cadastral and administrative border between Žebětín and Bystrc in the locality of Kamechy entered into force.

Part of the route of the unfinished extraterritorial highway Vienna - Wrocław planned by Nazi Germany passes through Žebětín, on the body of which a four-lane road to Bystrc was partially built here in the 1980s.
