Zábrdovice (German: Obrowitz[2]) is a cadastral territory northeast of the center of the city of Brno, Czech Republic.
[4] Zábrdovice acquired its current area and borders only at the end of the 1960s as a result of the second cadastral reform of Brno.
It follows from historical maps that they also originally included the part of the modern Husovice cadastral territory bordered to the north by Svitavská, Nováčková and Dačického streets (originally this street bore the distinctive name "Hraniční"), they also included part of the modern Černá Pole cadastral territory, the northeastern part of Trnitá, several blocks in the northwest of Černovice and the edge of the modern Židenice cadastral territory.
The district is directly adjacent to the historic core of Brno and therefore has a distinctly urban character with very dense buildings with several streets with high traffic.
The local Albert hypermarket is also located at the intersection of Tkalcovská and Cejl streets, in the premises of the former Vlněna factory, whose building burned down in 2001.
The district is infamous among the residents of Brno for its large Roma community, mainly concentrated on Cejl Street.
