The territory of modern-day Sadová was annexed to Brno in 1919. Since November 24, 1990, Sadová has been part of the municipal district of Brno-Královo Pole. About 1,800 inhabitants live here.

History
The Sadová cadastral territory was created during the second cadastral reform of Brno carried out in 1966–1969, from the northeastern part of the original Královo Pole cadastral territory and small parts of the Obřany cadastral territories (the eastern lane of the road in Dusíková Street, leading from Lesná to Soběšice) and Soběšice (parcels 952 /1, 952/2, 952/3, 952/4, 952/6, 952/7, 952/8, 952/9, 952/10, 952/11, 952/12, 952/13, 952/14, 952/15, 952/16), from that time until 1990 it was part of the then municipal district of Brno V. The Sadová area previously served as a reserve for further housing development construction. After the Velvet Revolution, on November 24, 1990, it became part of the newly established self-governing district of Brno-Královo Pole.

Due to the attractiveness of the entire location, a construction of residential complexes began here in the late 2000s: in October 2008, a small complex of terraced houses, called "Nad Kociánkou", began to be built in Kostelní Zmola Street, the completion of which was planned for September 2010; East of Kociánka Street, the large residential complex "Panorama Kociánka" for about 600 residents began to be built in 2008, and the luxury apartment building "Zaječí Hora" was built in 2022 to southeast of Sadová in Křivého Street.

Geography
Within the city district of Brno-Královo Pole as well as Brno, Sadová, whose surface has significant differences in height, is exceptional in that it is dominated by the forests of Kyselé and Zaječí hory (324 m above sea level), gardens and orchards. The whole of Sadová is located on the hills between Královo Pole and Soběšice. From the southern slopes of Sadová there is a view of Královo Pole and the adjacent district. The aforementioned Zaječí hora is located approximately in the center of the Sadová cadastre, around which flows the Zaječí stream in the adjacent valley, on which there are three ponds and several lakes. The valley with the stream also represents an important landscape element of the Zaječího Potoka Stream. To the east of the Sadové cadastre, in the "U Antoníčka" valley, close to the border with Lesná, there is the chapel of St. Anthony (better known as the chapel of St. Antoníček) and the nearby U Antoníček well.

The Sadová cadastral area borders Královo Pole to the south and west, Řečkovice and Soběšice to the north, and Lesná to the east.
