It was incorporated as a town in 1467. It was a private church town, administratively located in the Piotrków County in the Sieradz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.[6] In 1870 it was downgraded to a village. In 1469, the Kraków Cathedral Chapter built the Saint Stanislaus church.[2]
Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, Rzgów was occupied by Germany until 1945. In July 1940, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, who were deported to a transit camp in Łódź and then to the Lublin District in the more-eastern part of German-occupied Poland, while their houses were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[7]
On January 1, 2006 it became a town again.
Rzgów has a humid continental climate (Cfb in the Köppen climate classification).
