The oldest mention of the village dates back to 1305.[3] Zblewo was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tczew County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[4]

The development of Zblewo in the latter half of the 19th century is primarily associated with the construction of the Prussian Eastern Railway.[3]

During the Nazi occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1939, the Nazis murdered several Poles from Zblewo, including a local priest, along with Poles from other villages in large massacres in the Szpęgawski Forest (see Intelligenzaktion).[5]
