History

Most of the cadastre of the district was annexed to Brno on July 6, 1850, as part of the then Křížová cadastral territory, while the western peripheral part (previously belonging to the Žabovřesky cadastral territory) on April 16, 1919. The entire territory of the district was without any buildings until the 1860s . Modern building activity began here only in the 1890s, before 1918 an office district, later called Masaryk's quarter (Masarykova čtvrť), began to emerge here. Until the extensive cadastral adjustments of Brno, carried out as part of the reambulation, in the second half of the 1960s of the 20th century, the areas of the current Stránice were part of both above-mentioned cadastral territories, while in 1927 and 1939 the border between the two cadastres was adjusted twice. It was only during the aforementioned reambulation that the new cadastral territory of Stránice was created, the name of which was chosen fittingly according to the steep slopes that line its borders in many places.

Character

The entire area of ​​Stránice, located on the slopes of Žlutý kopec and Kraví hora, is almost exclusively covered by high-quality family and apartment buildings with a number of villas, often surrounded by smaller gardens. The border of the Stránice cadastral territory is defined as follows: the eastern border is formed by Úvoz street, then it turns to the northwest and leads through Údolní, náměstí Míru and Krondlova streets, then it turns in a southwesterly direction to Foustkova street, continues along the edge of Wilson's forest, and then turns to the southeast to Preslova street, continues to the exit along Lipová and Tvrdého streets.
