Jamna Górna was founded on Walachian law at the beginning of the 16th century as a royal village and belonged to the Przemyśl starosty. At the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, the village was separated from the Przemyśl starosty and leased.

In 1812, the conqueror sold the village to the owner of the fishermen's estate to Paweł Tyszkowski and remained in the hands of Tyszkowscy Jamna Górna until 1939. Konstanty Tyszkowski was her last pre-war owner. In the nineteenth century, the village belonged to the Greek Catholic parish in Trinity, and there was a wooden church Orthodox church of St. Michael Archangel from 1843.

In the 1960s, a secret complex of the Center of the Council of Ministers' Holiday Center was erected in the village of Arłamów (591 m above sea level) [5]. Jamna Górna became part of the Center, which also included villages: Arłamów, Borysławka, Grąziowa, Jamna Dolna, Krajna, Kwaszenina, Łomna and Trójca, in total about 23,000 ha. The center served as a hunting ground for the then party and government elite and their guests not only from "brotherly countries". A special Krajna airport was also built for them near Bircza, where the Arłamów landing ground has been operating since 2012 [4].
After the imposition of martial law, Lech Wałęsa, chairman of Solidarity, was interned in the Center between 11 May and 14 November 1982. In 1989, the government center was liquidated. The outposts at the entrance survived until mid-1991.
