As part of the region of Greater Poland, i.e. the cradle of the Polish state, the area formed part of Poland since its establishment in the 10th century. Bojanowo was granted town rights in 1638. It was administratively located in the Poznań Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. It was annexed by Prussia in the Second Partition of Poland. Following the successful Greater Poland uprising of 1806, it was regained by Poles and included within the short-lived Duchy of Warsaw. After its dissolution in 1815, it was re-annexed by Prussia, within which it was located in the Kreis Rawitsch of Provinz Posen. Following World War I, Poland regained independence and control of the town.

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in December 1939, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, mostly craftsmen, postal workers and intelligentsia with entire families, as well as several local Jews.[5][6] Houses and workshops of the expellees were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[5] The Polish resistance movement was present in Bojanowo. In June 1944, the Gestapo arrested both the commander and deputy commander of the local unit of the Home Army, who were then subjected to brutal interrogations, and eventually sent to concentration camps and killed there.[7]

Sports

The local football club is Ruch Bojanowo.[8] It competes in the lower leagues.
