history

Silver mining took place on Preperek Mountain as early as the Middle Ages, and iron ore mining began around 1300 when the deposit was exhausted. When a large deposit was opened up in the 14th century, the Wenceslas hammer was the first iron hammer and around it the settlement of Najdek, which belonged to the property of the Žďár monastery . In 1407 the Nikolaushammer, which later became the Figlhammer, and the Heršovský hammer, from which the Frendelhammer emerged, were in operation. The hammer was founded in 1453 by hammer master Hans.

At the transition from the 17th to the 18th century, iron ore mining declined and after the opening of a quarry, the ironworks were shut down.

In 1897 the construction of the railway from Německý Brod to Žďár nad Sázavou began and on December 21, 1898 the first train left. In October 1930 there was a large snow and wind break in the forests of the Žárské vrchy , for the removal of which a forest railway was built, which led to the Velké Dářko .

The double-track expansion of the line between Deutschbrod and Brno began in 1939 and was completed on December 20, 1953. 1954 Najdek including the district Šlakhamry was incorporated. Horní Hamry has always been part of Dolní Hamry.

In 1970 a culture house was inaugurated after six years of construction. In April 1975 it was incorporated into Žďár nad Sázavou and since July 1, 1990 Hamry nad Sázavou has been an independent municipality again.
