Deblín is located about northwest of Brno. It lies in the Křižanov Highlands. The highest point is the hill V Koutě at 511m (1,677feet) above sea level. The Závistka Stream originates here and flows through the village.
The first written mention of Deblín is from 1173, when a castle with a Romanesque-Gothic basilica stood here.[2]

The main landmark of Deblín is the Church of Saint Nicholas. It was built on the site of the original basilica and despite its Gothic-Baroque style, it has some Romanesque elements.[3]
