==History== thumb|left|Garbów church The village was first mentioned in 1326 as a seat of a separate parish. In the 15th century it was a personal property of the Odrowąż noble family. In 1785 it was sold to Jacek Jezierski, the castellan of Łuków and a marshal of the szlachta who made the village receive the Magdeburg Law. During the Kościuszko Uprising of 1794 the town was a battlefield of the last skirmish between the forces of Poland and Russia. After that the town was annexed by Austria in the Third Partition of Poland. After the Polish victory in the Austro-Polish War of 1809, it became part of the short-lived Duchy of Warsaw, and after the duchy's dissolution in 1815, it fell to the Russian Partition of Poland. Its town status was withdrawn.
