History
edit
The oldest known mention of the settlement 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, the town was invaded and then occupied by Germany until 1945. Jabłonowo Pomorskie was one of the sites of executions of Poles carried out by Germany in 1939 as part of the Intelligenzaktion.[3]
