The village was mentioned for the first time in 1523. At the beginning of the 16th century the village was empty. The village was settled by the Dutch colonists after 1796. In 1798, it had an Evangelical school. By 1827, the village had 18 houses and 167 residents. In 1893, the village had 9 houses, 197 inhabitants, and 792 morga of manor land and only 23 morga of peasant land.

Wierzbie is a linear village located on the eastern side of the Kutno-Gostynin road, along an east-west line with farms on both sides of the road.

The cultural landscape has been completely transformed with new buildings along the road. One building characteristic for the traditional colonization have survived.

No. 37 is a masonry building, erected ca. 1930. It is situated on the north side of the road ca. 200 m from it. It is part of a modern homestead established on a rectangular plan. The building is situated on the southern side along an east-west line. It was made of bricks bonded with cement-lime mortar - plastered. The wall structure is covered with a rafter-collar beam, double-pitched roof with sheet metal roofing. A residential section (eastern side) and a cowshed are located under one roof. The building is preserved in good condition.
