Interrupted by the German occupation during the Second World War from 1919 to 1975, today's municipal area belonged to the Poznan Voivodeship with different layouts. - The German minority was expelled after the World War.
From 1975 to 1998 the municipality came to the Kalisz Voivodeship . The powiat was dissolved during this time. The rural community of Krotoszyn was repeatedly converted into various gromadas from 1954 and newly created on January 1, 1973. City and rural municipality Krotoszyn were merged in 1990/1991 to form an urban and rural municipality. This has belonged to the Greater Poland Voivodeship since 1999 and to the re-established Powiat Krotoszyński.
