Gruna is located about east of Svitavy and northwest of Olomouc. It lies on the border between the Zábřeh Highlands and Orlické Foothills. The highest point is a nameless hill at above sea level. The Třebůvka River briefly crosses the municipal territory in the southwest. The brook Grunský potok originates here and then flows through the village into the Třebůvka. ==History==

The first written mention of Gruna and Žipotín is from 1365, when Gruna belonged to the Moravská Třebová estate and Žipotín to the Cimburk estate. From 1398 at the latest, Žipotín was also a part of the Moravská Třebová estate. For almost its entire history, Gruna was an agricultural village. ==Demographics==
