history

The Steingrund settlement, located near the border with the County of Glatz , was founded around 1690 by the Friedeberg Office of the Prince-Bishop's Johannisberg Estates and was first mentioned in 1692. The new settlers were initially given the land as a lease and later also inherited it; they were freed from the robot because of the great poverty. The residents lived from forest work; Because of the altitude and the barren stony soils, agriculture was not very productive, and grain had to be bought in. Steingrund was the highest settlement of the Friedeberger Amt. In 1723 the manor allowed the 23 families living in Steingrund to build a mill. Because of the long way to school to Gurschdorf , the community organized school lessons in the village; initially border guards acted as teachers, later also foresters. At the end of the 18th century, the Friedeberger Amt of the municipality sold just under 100 Breslau shelves of forest and pasture land for 1500 guilders; the pastures were bought by the community itself, and the purchase price for the forest was put together by 24 families. In 1816 the residents built a chapel in which services were held from time to time.

In 1836, Steingrund consisted of 38 wooden houses in which 281 German-speaking people lived. The main sources of income were flax spinning, daily wages and meager farming. In the village there was an emergency school, a bar with baking justice, a catchy mill and a potash hut . The parish was Gurschdorf . In 1837 the Friedeberger Amt had a village school built in Steingrund . Until the middle of the 19th century, Steingrund remained subject to the diocese of Breslau.

After the abolition of patrimonial Steingrund formed from 1849 a district of the municipality Gurschdorf in the judicial district Weidenau . From 1869 the village belonged to the Freiwaldau district. The Czech place name Kamenné was introduced at the end of the 19th century. With the emergence of tourism at the end of the 19th century, the village received a new perspective as a summer resort due to its scenic location. In 1900 Steingrund had 218 inhabitants and consisted of 45 houses. In the 1921 census, 188 Germans lived in the 46 houses in the village. In the interwar period, most of the wooden houses were replaced by new stone buildings. In 1930 Steingrund had 209 inhabitants. In 1937 the volunteer fire brigade built a syringe house and bought a fire extinguisher. After the Munich Agreement , the village was assigned to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Freiwaldau district until 1945 . Further plans for the construction of a new school house, an inn as well as residential and farm buildings could no longer be realized due to the outbreak of war in 1939. After the end of the Second World War, Kamenné came back to Czechoslovakia; most of the German-speaking residents were expelled in 1945/46 . The repopulation of the remote place was only possible to a limited extent. In 1950, only 25 people lived in the 17 houses in Kamenné. Most of the new settlers soon moved away again. During the territorial reform of 1960 the Okres Jeseník was abolished and the place was incorporated into the Okres Šumperk . At that time, Kamenné was already abandoned. In 1961 the village was razed to the ground by pioneer troops. In contrast to most of the destruction of abandoned villages and estates by the army, which usually left heaps of rubble, Kamenné was completely eliminated; it is not known what the reasons were.

The previously populated valley is now meadowland. The only relics are the stone retaining wall of a larger house in the upper village and the concrete foundation of a farm building. A simple wooden cross reminds of the former village today.
