The area formed part of Poland since the establishment of the state in the 10th century.

Rogowo was a private village of Polish nobility, administratively located in the Kościan County in the Poznań Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.

Following World War I, Poland regained independence and control of the village.

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1942, the German gendarmerie carried out expulsions of Poles, who then were either deported to the General Government in the more eastern part of German-occupied Poland or enslaved as forced labour in the county.

[3] Houses and farms of expelled Poles were handed over to new German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.
