Tychowo dates back to an early medieval Slavic settlement, which became part of the emerging Polish state in the 10th century.
From the 12th century it was part of the Duchy of Pomerania, which split off from Poland as a result of the fragmentation of Poland into smaller duchies.
The oldest known mention of the village comes from 1250.
In the 15th century, the timber-framed church was built.

From 1701 the village was part of the Kingdom of Prussia, and from 1871 to 1945 it was part of Germany.
During World War II the Germans established the Stalag Luft IV prisoner-of-war camp.
The prisoners were mainly Americans, but also the British, Canadians, Russians, Poles, Australians, New Zealanders, South Africans, Czechs, French and one Norwegian.
After the war the region became part of Poland again according to the post-war Potsdam Agreement.

Tychowo was granted town rights in 2010.
