The Augustinian monastery was first mentioned in a document in 1155. Its foundation by the bishop of Plock falls between 1129 and 1155. The Romanesque monastery church dates from the 12th century. The town received city rights in 1373. The town also developed as a trading point on the Vistula and a fortification to protect the northern border of Mazovia. In 1657 the place was destroyed by Swedish troops - of approx. 500 town houses only approx. 40 remained.
