An old church village and the former Sadkowski family nest of the Rola coat of arms. They were probably named after Sadek. The history of the village was related to the family of this middle nobility until the 17th century. The Sadkowski family held minor offices in the Rawa region, were electors of Polish kings, and also studied at the Krakow Academy (Jagiellonian University). They, too, most likely founded the first wooden church, dedicated to the Ten Thousand Martyrs, which was first mentioned in history in 1428, although the local parish was established in 1532.
Inside, a boat-shaped pulpit and interesting sculptures of the great altar.
The specific location of Sadkowice at the crossroads of tacted roads meant that foreign troops passed through the village several times. During the Swedish Deluge in 1655, General Duglas with 6,000 Swedes passed here, and in 1656, the Swedish King Charles X Gustav together with Hieronim Radziejowski, then Charles XII in 1704, and in 1794 the Prussian King Frederick William II. In 1809, the Austrians marched here on their way to Of Warsaw and back again to New Town on the Pilica river. These facts undoubtedly influenced the impoverishment of the area after each such march.
At the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries, the village of Sadkowice passed into the hands of the Załuski, the Junosza coat of arms, then the Krasiński family, and again the Załuski, from whom Franciszek Leszczyński, the Belina coat of arms, bought the property of Sadkowice in 1792. His daughter Julianna in the statue brought the property of Sadków to the Zawisz family, the Prior's coat of arms, who remained the owners until 1888.
In 1813, the wooden church, mentioned on the occasion of the visitation in 1552 and 1617, burned down, and in its place, Onufry Zawisza founded a new, also wooden church with one front tower. Currently, a brick, two-tower church was founded in 1884-86 by Marian Zawisza.
In 1827, Sadkowice had 30 houses and 310 inhabitants, while in 1889 - 45 houses and 335 inhabitants. In 1854 an elementary school was mentioned in Sadkowice. After the Zawisz family, the property in Sadków was taken over by Świdziński, and in 1894 it was bought by Antoni Radzikowski, whose son Wacław was the last heir of these properties.
The commune also includes old villages: Lubania, about which the first historical records come from the 15th century, as well as Kaleń, Bujały, Olszowa Wola and Lewin.
Nearby, the village of Trębaczew, mentioned at the beginning of the 16th century as Trebarzow, later as Trębaczów.
