history

Kamień and Steinau on the Franziszeische Landesaufnahme around the middle of the 19th century

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Kamień became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

The village was established in 1783 during the Josephine colonization on the eastern bottom of the village of Kamień. 52 German families (46 Lutheran and 5 Reformed, 131 people in total) were settled on 366 hectares. The colony was called Steinau and became an independent municipality. In 1812 the colony had 256 inhabitants. The Protestants founded a branch of the parish Ranischau . The new prayer house was built in 1867. In 1880 there were 373 Germans.

In 1900 the community Steinau in the district of Nisko had 59 houses with 374 inhabitants, of which 365 were German-speaking, 9 Polish-speaking, 10 Roman-Catholic, there were 5 Jews and 359 of other faiths.

On June 13, 1915, a Tyrolean soldier unintentionally started a fire in Steinau, where the prayer house and most of the buildings were burned down. The fire practically ended the colony because the majority of the colonists emigrated afterwards. In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Steinau came to Poland and only 5 families of German descent remained in the village. A Pole became the new Vogt.

In 1921 the community Nowy Kamień (Steinau) had 84 houses with 509 inhabitants, of whom all were Poles, 466 Roman Catholic, 1 Greek Catholic, 38 Protestant, there were 4 Jews.

On September 25, 1924, the German name was removed, but remained in the local language as Śtojno . It is possible that the German colonists pronounced the end of the word -au as [ō].

During the Second World War , the municipality belonged to the Krakow district of the General Government . The occupiers wanted to destroy Nowy Kamień in order to create a place for an air force base, but the colonists' descendants begged Hans Frank not to do so.

From 1975 to 1998 Nowy Kamień was part of the Rzeszów Voivodeship .
