Maloměřice

Maloměřice (German: Malmeritz) is a municipal part and cadastral territory on the northeastern edge of the city of Brno, Czech Republic.

Originally an independent municipality, it was annexed to Brno in 1919, since 24 November 1990 it is part of the city district of Brno-Maloměřice and Obřany.

It is located in the northeastern part of the city in the valley of the Svitava river, mostly on the left bank, except for the Cacovický ostrov island and its territory extends to the southwestern slope of the Hády massif, where there is an extensive system of limestone quarries, mined until the end of the 20th century for processing in the local cement plant.

In the years 1843–1849, a railway line from Brno to Česká Třebová was built along the eastern edge of the original village.

As of 28 March 2015, it was transferred to the cadastral territory Židenice and city district Brno-Vinohrady, and only some adjacent garages remained in Maloměřice.

In 1958, it bought a former inn at Selská 53 and rebuilt it into a prayer hall, today called the Bethlem congregation house.
