The village of Kluzov is an administrative part of Haňovice.
The initial name of the village was Hanějovice. The name was derived from the personal name Haněj. In the 19th century, the name was shortened to Haňovice.[2]
The first written mention of Haňovice is in a deed of bishop Jindřich Zdík from 1141. The village was probably founded at the turn of the 11th and 12th centuries.[3]
Haňovice is located about 17 kilometres (11 mi) northwest of Olomouc. Most of the municipal territory lies in an lat agricultural landscape in the Upper Morava Valley. The western part extends into the Zábřeh Highlands and includes the highest point of Haňovice at 298 m (978 ft) above sea level. The Loučka Stream flows through the municipality.
The D35 motorway (part of the European route E442) from Olomouc to the Hradec Králové Region runs along the northeastern municipal border.
The railway line Prostějov–Červenka passes through the municipality, but there is no train station. The municipality is served by the station in neighbouring Myslechovice.
There are no protected cultural monuments in the municipality.[6] The main landmark is the Chapel of Saints Cyril and Methodius, located in the centre of the village.
