History
[edit | edit source]
The settlement was first mentioned in the 12th century, when it was part of Piast-ruled Poland. It was granted town rights in 1511 under the Jagiellonian dynasty. It was a private town of Polish nobility, administratively located in the Bielsk County in the Płock Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.[3]
In 1869 Drobin lost its town status.[4] It was regained in 1994.
A battle was fought nearby on August 15, 1920, during the Polish-Soviet War.[5]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), the Germans renamed the town Reichenfeld to erase traces of Polish origin, and operated a forced labour camp there.[6]
Sports
[edit | edit source]The local football team is Skra Drobin.[7] It competes in the lower leagues.
