Kamenný Újezd is located about 8km (05miles) south of České Budějovice. It lies in the Gratzen Foothills. The highest point is the hill Na Vrchu at 574m (1,883feet) above sea level. The western municipal border is partly formed by the Vltava River. The municipal territory is rich in fishponds.
The first written mention of Kamenný Újezd is from 1263. From 1455 to 1602, the village was property of the Rosenberg family as a part of the Krumlov estate. In 1552, the Rosenbergs unsuccessfully tried to promote Kamenný Újezd to a town. The estate was acquired by Emperor Rudolf II in 1602. Kamenný Újezd was badly damaged during the Thirty Years' War. As a part of the Krumlov estate, the village was owned by the Eggenberg family in 1622–1719 and by the Schwarzenberg family from 1719 until the establishent of a sovereign municipality in 1849.[2]
The I/3 road (part of the European route E55) from České Budějovice to the Czech-Austrian border in Dolní Dvořiště passes through the municipality.
Kamenný Újezd is located on the railway line České Budějovice–Linz.[3]
The main landmark of Kamenný Újezd is the Church of All Saints. It was originally a Gothic church as old as the village. Its present appearance is a result of the Baroque reconstruction.[4]
