Ca. 1880, it had 360 houses and 960 residents. In 1916, a part of the village - Nowe Bródno was incorporated into Warsaw and urbanized. The remaining part was incorporated into the capital city in 1951. The Dutch settlers (several Mennonite families) inhabited Bródno at the beginning of the 19th century; they were attended to by the Elder of the Kazuń Niemiecki church.
