Etymology

There are three theories about the origin of the name. Either the name was derived from the word zásada, which denoted a place where hunters lie in wait for game; or from the verb zasaditi se, which meant "to settle down"; or from the expression zasaditi hranice, i.e. "to mark boundaries".[2]
