Přízřenice () is a municipal part and cadastral territory in the south of the city of Brno, Czech Republic. Its area is 3.82 km². Originally its own municipality, it was annexed to Brno in 1919, and since 24 November 1990 it is part of the city district of Brno-jih. It has almost 1,200 inhabitants.

History Přízřenice became part of Brno on April 16, 1919. In 1975, Přízřenice became part of the Brno IV district, which existed until 1990. Since November 24, 1990, Přízřenice has been part of the city district of Brno-jih.

On September 12, 2010, a local referendum was held in Dolní Heršpice and Přízřenice on separation from Brno and the creation of a new municipality, Dolní Heršpice-Přízřenice, which however failed.

Description Similar to neighboring Dolní Heršpice, the development of Přízřenice consists of two distinctly separate parts. The western part is a commercial and industrial zone extending along both sides of Vídeňská street, through which the route of the multi-lane road E461 passes, in the middle of which is the route of tram line number 2. West of Vídeňská street, in the northwestern part of Přízřenice, there are a number of garden plots connecting to similar plots in Dolní Heršpice. The eastern part is the original village, which still retains its original character and is among the best-preserved village units in modern Brno. Between both parts, but also in the southwest and east of Přízřenice, there are extensive areas of arable land. A short section of the D2 motorway runs through the eastern edge of Přízřenice, and part of the Olympia shopping center also extends here.

Geography Přízřenice is located west of the river Svratka, near its confluence with the river Svitava.

Přízřenice borders the municipality of Modřice in the south and southeast, Moravany in the west, the cadastral territory of Dolní Heršpice in the north, and Holásky in the northeast.
