Situated in the Podlaskie Voivodeship (since 1999), previously in Łomża Voivodeship (1975–1998). The name of the town comes from the term ząbr, which means a place where żubry (European bison) gather. The first mention of the town comes from 1283, during which the town was the property of the Masovian Dukes of the Piast dynasty within fragmented Poland, and it got its city laws (Chełmno law) in 1430. The greatest development of the city came during the 15th and 16th centuries. The mid-17th-century Swedish Deluge brought an end to the prosperity of the city as much of it was destroyed.
