Brno-Líšeň

Brno-Líšeň is a city district of Brno, Czech Republic, in the northeastern part of the city. It consists of the cadastral territory of Líšeň, originally a town that was annexed to Brno in 1944. The cadastral territory has an area of 15.71 km2. The city district was established on November 24, 1990. Over 26,000 people live here. The district can be divided into "Old Líšeň" (original development of a village or small-town character) and "New Líšeň" (a panel housing estate built in the 1980s on the slopes west of the older development). The heart of the old Líšeň is the Charles IV square, locally called "Městečko". The district office is located in a service complex on a housing estate near the Jírova transport hub.
