Drnovice (Czech pronunciation: [ˈdr̩novɪtsɛ]; German: Drnowitz) is a municipality and village in Vyškov District in the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 2,400 inhabitants.

Etymology[edit]

The name is derived from the personal name Drn, meaning "the village of Drn's people".[2]

Geography[edit]

Drnovice is located about 3 kilometres (2 mi) west of Vyškov and 22 km (14 mi) east of Brno. It lies on the border between the Vyškov Gate and Drahany Highlands, on the edge of the fertile Haná region. The highest point is the hill Rozepře at 451 m (1,480 ft) above sea level. A dominant feature of the landscape near the village is the hill Chocholík at 367 m (1,204 ft). The Drnůvka Stream flows through the municipality.

History[edit]

The first written mention of Drnovice is from 1104, when it was a property of the Benedictine monastery in Třebíč.[3] From the 13th century until the second half of the 19th century, it was part of the Račice estate.[2]
