The oldest mentions about the parish school in Zaborów date back to 1812. In later years, as part of the initiative of the village’s lord – “Mister Werner” a secular school was established and opened in 1850 in the building of an unused forge. Before the First World War the head of the facility was Jan Kujawski who taught children in Polish despite the objection of the tsarist authorities. Several years after reclaiming independence by Poland in 1918 another school building was purchased and for the 10th anniversary of the reborn state a pedestal with a relief of an eagle and a statue of God’s Mother was placed in the vicinity. 1932 was the beginning of construction works of a modern school building which was opened six years later (it was given the patronage of the Insurgents of 1863 and the celebration was attended by a descendant of Romuald Traugutt and also the manager of the property in Zaborów – Bolesław Juszkiewicz). During the Second World War the building was taken over by the German army and gendarmerie establishing a Schutzpolizei unit here. After 1945 the school was renovated and extended (the works did not finish until 1971). A monument in the form of a boulder with a plaque which was built in 1982 and dedicated to the memory of all imprisoned, tortured and murdered in order to honour their martyrdom.
