Újezd u Brna is located about 13km (08miles) southeast of Brno. It lies in an agricultural landscape of the Dyje–Svratka Valley. The Litava River flows through the town.
The first written mention of Újezd (under the name Újezdec) is in a deed of Jindřich Zdík from 1141.[2]
Újezd was part of the battlefield of the Battle of Austerlitz on 2 December 1805.[3]
In 1909, Újezd was promoted to a market town. In 1952, Újezd merged with the neighbouring villages of Rychmanov and Šternov and was renamed Újezd u Brna.[2] In 2005, Újezd u Brna became a town.[4]
Újezd u Brna is located on the railway line heading from Křenovice to Skalice nad Svitavou via Brno.[5]
