history

After the middle of the 16th century, Hammer was laid out as a chamber village on cleared state forest land and was named Hammerstadt in 1571 . The name is derived from the mining that has been practiced here since the Middle Ages ( iron hammer / hammer mill ). The stone industry later developed. Since it did not have a church, it belonged to the parish of Habelschwerdt and later came to the parish of Voigtsdorf.

Together with other chamber villages in the Habelschwerdt district, Hammer acquired in 1684 the Governor of Glatz, Michael Wenzel von Althann , who formed the rule Schnallenstein from the newly acquired villages , the main town of which was Rosenthal , so that it was also referred to as "Dominion Rosenthal". In 1684 Hammer consisted of 15 men, four cottagers and a quarry.

After the Silesian Wars , Hammer and the County of Glatz came to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was initially incorporated into the district of Glatz. In 1818 it was reorganized into the newly formed district of Habelschwerdt , to which it belonged until 1945. Since 1874 it belonged to the administrative district Altweistritz. In 1939 there were 260 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Hammer fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Młoty . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . However, many of them left Młoty in the next decades, so that the population decreased significantly. 1975–1998 Młoty belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ).
