Brněnská přehrada, also known as Brno Reservoir, is a reservoir on the Svratka River at the northwest edge of the city of Brno, Czech Republic. The reservoir was created by the construction of a dam on the 56th kilometre of the Svratka River and the resultant flooding of the river valley containing the village of Kníničky. It serves as a place for recreation and a source of electric power. The reservoir has a surface area of 259 hectares and an average depth of 23.5 metres. The surrounding area offers opportunities for hiking, cycling, and water sports, and the nearby Veveří Castle is a popular destination for tourists. The reservoir is also home to an international firework competition, Ignis Brunensis, held annually at the end of May and beginning of June
