The line begins with Adolph Baerens , governor of Dargun in Mecklenburg. On November 9, 1709, he received the imperial nobility in Vienna with an improvement in the coat of arms and the name "Baerenfels von Warnow". His descendants today bear the name "von Baerenfels-Warnow".

In the 17th and 18th centuries, the Baerenfelsers also served as Danish-Norwegian officers.

The Rustow estate was owned by von Baerenfels from 1695 to 1845. In 1697, 22 subjects and four farmers belonged to the estate. The chapel next to the manor park was Samuel Adolph von Baerenfels 1790 according to the architect Johann Gottfried Quistorp built. The Rustow manor was rebuilt in 1808 in the classical style.

During the Wars of Independence , eight half-timbered cottages for 20 families belonged to Gut Rustow . At that time the Swedish Crown Prince and his staff were billeted in Rustow Castle. The young Major Moritz von Krusenstern fell in love with the daughter of the house and took her to Sweden with him after the wedding in 1818.
