- Hamry municipality, Klatovy district, Plzeň region - flag adopted 5 October
2004.
The small village Hamry is a well-known leisure centre in the western
part of the Šumava mountains (Bohemian Forest) on the Úhlava river about
8 km south-east of the town Nýrsko, 582 m a.s.l.
The village arose as a blacksmith's settlement near the iron mines.
The first mention is from 1429. The glassworks were founded here in the
first half of the 18th century. Hamry was also a seat of the magistrate's
office in the Middle Ages.
The name Hamry means "iron-mills" and it originates from the time of
the foundation of the original blacksmith's settlement.
The Church of Our Lady of Sorrow above the village arose from the original
chapel in 1773.
The composer P. Stuiber lived and died in Hamry.
