history

At the site of the present-day village, a small fortress was probably built in the middle of the 13th century at the fork of the Lausitzer Steig and the Bohemian Road by the Scharfenstein manor , to which a farm was attached. The Counts of Thun-Hohenstein auf Tetschen founded a settlement on the northern corridors of Meierhof Heidenstein between 1737 and 1739, which was initially called Heidensteindörfl or Neuheidenstein . The place was laid out as a street village, the houses of which were almost always built on the gable side of the street. In 1787 there were 40 houses in Neuheidenstein . The Meierhof went out at the end of the 18th century and the place took over its name. In 1833 341 people lived in Heidenstein's 58 houses.

After the abolition of patrimonial Heidenstein formed from 1850 a district of the municipality Loosdorf in the district administration Tetschen / Děčín. In 1890 359 people lived in Heidenstein, in 1910 there were 336. In 1901 an inn with a 20 m high observation tower was built on the Hainhübel, but it burned down in 1908 under strange circumstances. In 1930 Heidenstein had 236 inhabitants. After the Munich Agreement , Heidenstein and Loosdorf were added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Tetschen district until 1945 , and from 1943 to Tetschen-Bodenbach . After the end of the Second World War, the village came back to Czechoslovakia. The German residents were expelled by 1946 and the place was renamed Kámen in 1947 . 1980 Kámen was incorporated together with Ludvíkovice to Děčín, where the place formed the district Děčín XXX-Kámen until 1991. Since January 1, 1992, Kámen has been a political municipality and thus became independent for the first time in its history.
