In 1433, the settlement was granted by Lithuanian Duke Sigismund Kęstutaitis to Jonas Goštautas.[3] In 1519, Albertas Goštautas built a new church.[4] From 1538 to 1542, future Queen consort of Poland Barbara Radziwiłł lived in the town.[4] In 1542, it passed to King Sigismund I the Old.[3] Afterwards it was a royal town, administratively located in the Oszmiana County in the Vilnius Voivodeship of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. Several assemblies of Lithuanian nobility were held in the town during the 1575 interregnum.[3] In 1708, King Stanisław Leszczyński stayed in the town for several days.[5]

Gieranony, as it was known in Polish, was administratively located in the Wołożyn County in the Nowogródek Voivodeship of interwar Poland. According to the 1921 census, the population was 97.5% Polish and 0.6% Belarusian.[6]

Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the town was first occupied by the Soviet Union until 1941, then by Nazi Germany until 1944, and re-occupied by the Soviet Union afterwards.
