The oldest known mention of Pakość comes from 1243.[1] In 1258 a castle was erected.[1] Town privileges were given to Pakość on 9 February 1359. It was a private town, owned by Polish nobility, administratively located in the Inowrocław County in the Inowrocław Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province.[2] In the 15th and 16th centuries it was a Protestant center.[1] The Działyński noble family founded a Baroque Catholic monastery, which remains one of the landmarks of the town.[1]

Pakość was annexed by Prussia in the First Partition of Poland in 1772. In 1807 it became part of the short-lived Polish Duchy of Warsaw, in 1815 it was re-annexed by Prussia, and in 1871 it became part of Germany. The populace took part in the Greater Poland uprising (1918–19),[1] and Pakość was successfully reintegrated with Poland, after the country regained independence in November 1918.
