gm. Młodzieszyn, pow. sochaczewski, woj. mazowieckie

The first mention of the village dates from 1349. The northern part of the village is located near the Vistula. It received the name Nowy Kamion after 1951. Kamion was settled by the Dutch colonists, most probably, in the first half of the 19th century. In 1827 Kamion had 73 houses and 474 residents. At that time Kamion was a linear village and had a wooden church and an elementary school. In 1841, a new masonry church was erected.

The village has a linear layout and is located to the south of the Vistula and to the north of Kamion Poduchowny on both sides of the road to Iłow. The road runs by the river.

The cultural landscape is well preserved, especially on the northern side of the road towards the flood-bank. A traditional field layout, roadsides planed with willows, drainage canals, and man-made rises, on which, initially, the homesteads were located are visible (some of the newer houses are also located on these rises). There are no preserved buildings associated with the Dutch colonization.
