History

Devastated church during World War I

It was founded in the 1820s by a landowner who had planned to build a textile industry there. In 1821 Konstantynów Łódzki, at that time still a village, became a part of the textile industry of the Łódź region. Shortly thereafter, in 1824 the town was given its current name and was established as a town in 1830. Town rights were revoked in 1870 and restored in 1924.

Following the German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, it was occupied by Germany until 1945.
