Z historie hamru:

Vodní hamr pravdepodobne vznikl jiz v 16.století. Do trvalého provozu byl uveden v roce 1656. Puvodní stavba hamru byla drevená, postupne se k hamru pristavovaly dalsí budovy. Do soucasné podoby byl hamr prestaven asi v letech 1825 – 30. Zpocátku se zde prokovávalo zelezo na polotovary, za tricetileté války se zde krome náradí vyrábely delové koule pro císarské vojsko.Od r.1724 slouzil hamr k výrobe hrebíkárského a cvockarského železa. Po 2. svetové válce zde bylo vyrábeno ruzné náradí a radlice pro pluhy az do roku 1956. Voda v náhonu pohánela puvodne pet vodních kol. Dve kola pohánejí dve tezka nadhazovací kladiva, jedno pohání podstropní transmisi, pomocí níz se dávají do pohybu stroje umístené na levé strane hamru (buchary, brusy, nuzky na plech, generátor – ten vyrábel elektrický proud o napetí 120V, který sloužil pouze na osvetlení) a jedno pohánelo dmychadla.Páté kolo, které patrilo k mechu pecí, shorelo a uz nebylo obnoveno.
