The history of Hrubý dates back to the medieval period, with the first written mention appearing in the 14th century. Originally, the area was part of the estate of the nearby town of Brandýs nad Labem-Stará Boleslav. Over the centuries, Hrubý developed as a farming community, with its economy primarily based on agriculture and livestock farming. The town remained relatively isolated until the 20th century, when infrastructure improvements connected it more closely to Prague and other regional centers.

Today, Hrubý retains much of its traditional rural charm, with a mix of historic farmhouses and modern residences. The local economy continues to rely on agriculture, though some residents also commute to nearby cities for work. The town features basic amenities, including a small grocery store, a post office, and a local café, catering to the needs of its residents.

Hrubý is also surrounded by natural landscapes, offering opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and birdwatching. The nearby Labská pahorkatina (Elbe Uplands) region provides scenic views and a peaceful environment for those seeking a quieter lifestyle away from urban areas. The town occasionally hosts small community events, fostering a sense of local pride and togetherness among its inhabitants.
