history

View towards the place

When the border was drawn in 1189, the Genitzbach, which flows next to Schamers, became the border between Bohemia and the Austrian states. The village emerged in the middle of the 13th century in the course of the German colonization of the Neuhauser Land and was first mentioned in 1359 as Emphyteuse . The church of St. Giles is also mentioned in 1359, but it was built at the time the town was founded.

Until 1463 Schamers belonged to the Třeboň monastery and then until 1848 to the Jindřichův Hradec ( Neuhaus ) estate . Schamers was elevated to market status by the gentlemen of Neuhaus and was given the privilege to trade in salt and wine as well as a coat of arms. The place name Schamers has been common since 1579 and was previously known as Tschammiers . During this time, Utraquists settled in the village and the place became Protestant. After the victory of the imperial troops in the Battle of White Mountain and the onset of the Counter-Reformation during the Thirty Years' War , the local population returned to Catholicism in 1625. Parish registers have been kept since 1606. From 1675 the place is granted market freedom and is thus exempt from robots. The surrounding villages have to take over the failing services of the market. In 1793, Emperor Franz II granted Schamers further market privileges.

As a result of the craft of linen weaving, the population increased in the 18th century. The Kaiserstraße from Vienna to Prague built in the years 1824-1827 increased the economic importance of the place. It was not until 1854, when the railway connections Vienna-Prague were opened, that trade declined and new opportunities for income develop, such as masons and other trades. In 1889 a volunteer fire brigade was founded in the village. A fruit tree nursery was established in the town hall in 1893. Between 1900 and 1902 the brook was regulated by the water cooperative. In the next few years, the dairy industry in Schamers became the main source of income.

After the First World War , the place, whose inhabitants were almost exclusively German-speaking in 1910, became part of the new Czechoslovak Republic . Due to settlers and newly filled civil servants, there is an increased influx of Czech-speaking people. The place was electrified in 1929. In 1930 the market town of Schamers, including its districts Klitschka-Mühle, Dracler-Mühle and Elendshäuser, had 464 inhabitants. From 1938 there was a post bus route to Riegerschlag and to Vienna until 1940. After the Munich Agreement in 1938, the place came to the German Reich and became part of the Reichsgau Niederdonau . On August 24, 1944, parts of a downed American bomber crashed into the town. This caused three houses to catch fire and one woman lost her life.

After the end of the Second World War , which claimed 25 victims among the local residents, the community came back to Czechoslovakia. On May 29, 1946, the place was occupied by a group of Czech militias. The local German population was expelled across the border into Austria . Eleven people remained in the place. The local residents in Austria were transferred to Germany up to approx. 19%, according to the Potsdam declaration . Four people emigrated to Australia and one each to Switzerland and Canada.

On June 14, 1964 the neighboring municipality Dobrá Voda ( Guttenbrunn ) was incorporated.

Seal and coat of arms

With the market survey on March 25, 1675, the place received the right to use a seal from the owner Johann Joachim Slavata von Chlum and Koschumberg . The seal shows within a pearl wreath with the inscription "SIEGEL DES MARKTES SCHAMERS" a Renaissance shield with a crowned "J".

The place with the seal also received a coat of arms. This was a gold shield with a wide blue bar and a gold initial "J". This is surrounded by a green laurel wreath set with four golden roses.
