History

Saint Adalbert church

The oldest known mention of Jabłonowo comes from a document issued by Duke Konrad I of Masovia of the Polish Piast dynasty in 1222.

Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, it was invaded and then occupied by Germany until 1945. From 1941 to 1943, Germany operated a Germinisation camp for Poles expelled from various places in Kuyavia and Pomerania, who were classified racially valuable by the occupiers.^[2]
