Rzgów [ʐɡuf] is a town in Łódź East County, Łódź Voivodeship, Poland, with 3,378 inhabitants (2016).[1] It was incorporated as a town from 1467 until 1870, then it was downgraded to a village. On January 1, 2006 it became a town again.

Rzgów was home of a small Jewish community before World War II. Under the German occupation, Jews from Rzgów and Konin worked for nearby farmers in exchange for food. In 1941, some were sent to the Lodz ghetto and others to Zagorow where later in the year they were murdered in a nearby forest.[2] Survivors, if any, are unknown.
