History

It was mentioned intermittently in various documents over the course of its history, with the first mention of a settlement was as far back as 1065, with another mention in 1110.[3][4][5] It was mentioned in the Innocent II's papal Bull of Gniezno in 1136.[3][4][5] In 1248 and 1262 it was mentioned in royal documentation, with the latter on 7 June the first mention of Sarnowa as a town, but formally received Magdeburg rights much later, in 1407.[3][4][5]

Until 1 January 1973, when it became part of Rawicz by the decision of the Council of Ministers, it was a separate town in its own right.[3][4][5]
