"The former independent municipality of Zbraslav is now one of two cadastral areas in the Prague-Zbraslav Municipal District (Mestská cást Praha-Zbraslav). The other is Lahovice.

Zbraslav was founded in 1118. In the 13th century, the king Wenceslaus II of Bohemia founded here a very influential Cistercian abbey which was called Aula regia in Latin. The medieval monastery became the burial place of Bohemian kings. The Madonna of Zbraslav (a masterpiece of Bohemian Gothic fine art) was painted for this monastery in the 1340s.

In 1924, Žabovresky and Zábehlice were joined to Zbraslav. In 1967, Zbraslav was elevated to be a "mesto" (= town, city). Zbraslav was merged into the city of Prague in 1974."
