Jabłoń as an early settlement was first mentioned in the XV century when it was the part of Lithuania.
The Połubinskis were the first owners , and their coats of arms was Jastrzębiec whose elements are the basis of the present coats of arms of the Jabłoń Commune.
At the beginning of the XV century the estate of Jabłoń belonged to the Firlej and Potocki Family .At the beginning of the XIX century the estate of Jabłoń was taken over by Piotr Strzyżewski who created its prosperity. It was the estate that led to the foundation
of an agriculture and breeding center . He had also laid out the park and next in 1812 built a palace in the style of classicism.
Between 1855 and 1884 the estate of Jabłoń was part of count Łubieński`s estate.
He laid foundations for the greater prosperity of the estate leading to more dynamic development of the property.
Thanks to Amelia Łubieńska five schools were founded in Jabłoń and its vicinity.
During the January Rising of 1863 the manor was a shelter for the insurgents and its
owner was sent into exile to Siberia .
In the seventies of XIX century the owner of the manor was persecuted for his
support of the struggle of the Uniat Church with the Orthodox Church .
The Family of Łubieński had to leave Jabłoń and it was in 1884 that August Zamoyski
from Różanka bought the manor for his son Tom.
Tomasz Zamoyski build a small palace ( at present the palace annex), and in the next decade (1904-05) the palace was built in the style of English neogothic. It replaced the
former palace which was the property of Strzyżowski.The farm buildings and farm hands` living quarters which can still exist were also build.
Between 1909 and 1912 the parish church and presbytery were build .
The period between the building of the palace and garden complex and the outbreak of
the first World War was the only period of its greatness .
Family gatherings ,balls, parties and hunting were organized .
With the outbreak of the first World War, the palace was empted, its interior was destroyed and the livestock was stolen .The manor was in the state of dilapidation.
The declining estate was taken over by August , Tomasz Zamoyski`son.
August Zamoyski was a well-known sculptor of that time.
Having combined the duties of an artist and sculptor at the same time he tried to improve
the condition of the estate. The hard work brought its rewards and it was just before
the outbreak of the second World War that the mortgage was paid off .
The second World War had initially been marked by the battle of 29th September 1939
against the Soviet troops and in following years of the war by the German occupation.
A labor camp for fifty Jews was made in Jabłoń by Germans and in 1941 also for some Soviet prisoners of war who were working there as farm workers.
Between 1942 and 1944 seven executions took place in which 48 people lost their lives.
Despite the terrible terror resistance was put up .
The troop of Home Army under Miller's command operating in the region of Radzyń Podlaski had its roots in Jabłoń .
After the war the estate was taken over by the Polish Government and it was parceled out.
In 1952, the local agriculture school was placed in the palace.
In 1968 , a fire brought out in the palace and that event made it impossible of its further use. Therefore the school was moved into a new building .
At present Jabłoń as a commune plays an important role in the Parczew region.

and also The Commune Office, a collective bank, health service center , a Catholic
parish and a commercial center .
