Komárov (German: Kumrowitz,[2] Hantec: Komec[3]) is a municipal part and cadastral territory in the south part of Brno, Czech Republic. It has an area of 1.66 km². Originally an independent municipality, it was annexed to Brno in 1919, since November 24, 1990 it has been part of the city district of Brno-jih. About 5,000 people live here.
The area of today's Komárov was annexed to Brno in two phases: on July 6, 1850, the territory originally belonging to Trnitá; and on April 16, 1919, on the basis of Act No. 213/1919 Coll., "on the merger of neighboring municipalities with Brno", the municipality of Komárov (including the former municipalities of Malá Mariacela and Petrohradská ulice) followed suit, as well as other parts of the modern cadastral territory.[citation needed]
Description
Komárov has an urban character, and as a district it was marked both by the development of industry and, in communist times, by the insensitive construction of a panel housing estate and roads on its territory. Nevertheless, even here you can find quality family housing surrounded by greenery. In recent years, a number of new shops have sprung up along Hněvkovského street, south of the railway line passing through Komárov.
