Staré Hamry (German: Althammer) is a municipality and village in the Frýdek-Místek District in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic.

The highest point is the Smrk mountain at 1,276 m (4,186 ft) above sea level, located on the northern municipal border.

Initially, the village was located only on the right bank of the Ostravice, which formed the border between Czech Silesia and Moravia.

In 1951, the northern part of the municipality was split from Staré Hamry and joined with Ostravice; whereas the southern part of Ostravice was split from it and joined with Staré Hamry.

A monument on the outside of the cemetery wall from 1933 commemorates the social poem Maryčka Magdónova by Petr Bezruč.
