history
In 1674 the owner of the Dobřisch estate , Franz Maximilian von Mansfeld, had an ironworks and several iron hammers built east of Dobřisch. It can be assumed that he also had a settlement built for the smelters and hammer people. This settlement was originally called Huť , Hutě Železné or Hutě Železné Dobříšské . Decisive for the foundation was the abundance of wood in the area as well as the existing hydropower of the Sychrovský potok, which was dammed for this purpose in the Althüttner pond and hammer pond. The iron stone was mined outside the rulership in Brdy near Chlumetz , Kleschtěnitz ( Kleštěnice ), Wohrazenitz , Hatie ( Hatě ), Sliwitz ( Slivice ) and Zduchowitz , only at Rochot there was an iron mine on the domain. The first hammer was located below the hammer pond dam instead of the settlement Josefovo Údolí , and the second and third hammer followed downstream in the valley of Sychrovský potok. The fourth hammer was located east of Althütten in the Kotzaba valley , below it was the tin hammer on a pond. After the construction of another ironworks near Obecnice in 1714, the settlement and the hut were given the name Stará Huť or old steelworks .
After the male line had died out in 1780 with the death of Joseph Wenzel von Mansfeld , his sister Maria Isabella inherited the Dobřisch rule. The name and coat of arms were merged with the family of her husband Franz de Paula Gundaker von Colloredo-Waldsee-Mels to the Colloredo-Mannsfeld family . After Maria Isabella's death in 1794, her son Rudolph Joseph II inherited the property. At the beginning of the 19th century he had the first iron rolling mill built in Althütten in Bohemia and at the same time in the Imperial and Royal Monarchy. Since the rolling mill operation was not profitable, Rudolph Joseph II had the rolling mill shut down and the plant converted into a machine factory. After the death of the childless Rudolf Joseph II von Colloredo-Mannsfeld, the rule fell to his nephew Franz de Paula Gundaccar II von Colloredo-Mannsfeld in 1844 .
In 1846 the village of Althütten or Stará Huť in the Berauner district consisted of 109 houses with 954 inhabitants, including two Protestant and two Jewish families. In the village there was an official shift office, an official blast furnace, an inn and two mills, one of which had a board saw. Apart from that, there was the Fünflinden ruling farm ( U Pěti Lip ), two ruling iron hammers, an ruling machine factory and an ruling forester's house ( hájovna Rybníky ). The parish was Dobřisch. The steelworks Althütten and Obetznitz together had about 600–700 employees, including charring . In addition, the rule in Althütten operated a machine factory, in which steam engines as well as hydraulic and other tools were manufactured. Until the middle of the 19th century, Althütten remained subject to the Dobřisch rule.
After the abolition of patrimonial Stará Huť / Althütten formed from 1850 a municipality in the judicial district Dobříš. In 1864 the drive of the machine factory was converted to a steam engine. The smelter, iron foundry and machine factory operated under the name of Dobříš ironworks. Mainly technical equipment for mines and sawmills, pumps and steam engines were manufactured. Cast iron manufacture became the company's main source of income. Around 1870 the iron foundry began producing toilet bowls, dishes, wash basins and bathtubs as well as agricultural equipment. Mechanical engineering components were also manufactured for the national market and for export.
From 1868 the municipality belonged to the Příbram District . In 1897 the Dobříš – Praha-Modřany railway was opened, and in 1910 Stará Huť received a stop. In 1905, Joseph Fürst Colloredo-Mannsfeld brought five muskrats with him from a trip to Canada and released the three female and two male specimens at the hut pond, the animals are considered to be the tribe of the entire Central European muskrat population. In 1913 a post office was opened in the community. In the same year the place was electrified and street lighting was installed. During the First World War , the Dobříš ironworks manufactured war equipment for the Austro-Hungarian army under military supervision. The economic crisis of the 1920s hit the Dobříš ironworks hard. During this time there was a change of ownership and finally the affiliation to other companies. The changes in production that were carried out in the process led to unprofitability and ultimately to the closure of the plant in 1926. The closure of the ironworks hit Stará Huť all the more because at that time the production of gloves, which was mainly carried out by women, was in a crisis. In 1932 Stará Huť had 1,323 inhabitants. After the end of the Second World War , heavily armed German soldiers coming from Nový Knín passed through Stará Hu z on May 9, 1945 and fled via Milín to the south-west to be taken prisoner by the Americans. On May 12, 1945 the Red Army under Marshal Malinovsky occupied the village, and in October 1945 the Soviet troops left the village. From 1949 Stará Huť belonged to the newly formed Okres Dobříš, after its abolition the community was again part of the Okres Příbram in 1960 . In 1997 and 1998 the CzechTek took place at Stará Huť . The community has had a coat of arms and a banner since 2011.
