history

Entrance to Stara Jamke

In 1532 the village was first mentioned as Jamcka . According to legend, the village already existed in the 13th century and belonged to the Knights Templar .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Polish Jamke and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . The village belonged to the Opole district from 1743 to 1818 .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community Polish Jamke belonged from 1818 to the district of Falkenberg OS in the administrative district of Opole . In 1819 a Catholic school was set up in the village, which was able to move into a new building in 1828. In 1845 there was a manorial house, an outbuilding, a Catholic school, a distillery and 52 houses in the village. In the same year, 371 people lived in Jamke, three of them Protestants. In 1861, 373 people lived in the village. In 1865, Polish Jamke had 26 gardeners, 4 semi-gardeners and 4 cottagers. The Catholic school was attended by 138 students in the same year. In 1874 the administrative district Puschine was founded, which consisted of the places Kolonie Heinrichau, Piechotzütz, Polish Jamke and Puschine and the manor districts Polish Jamke and Puschine. In 1885 Ringwitz had 415 inhabitants.

On August 15, 1927, the rural community and the manorial district Polish Jamke was renamed Jamke . In 1933 Jamke had 426 inhabitants. On September 19, 1936, the place was renamed Heinrichshof OS . In 1939 there were 429 people living in Heinrichshof OS. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Falkenberg OS

As a result of the Second World War, Heinrichshof OS fell under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . The place was subsequently renamed Stara Jamka and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1946 the German population was expelled. In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999 the place came to the newly founded Powiat Nyski ( Neisse district ). In 2005 the village had 232 inhabitants.
