As a result of the provisions of the Congress of Vienna Bronkow and its current districts came in 1815 with the area of ​​the entire Lower Lusatia to the Kingdom of Prussia and belonged to the district of Calau from 1817–1952 (until 1947 in the province of Brandenburg , 1947–1952 in the state of Brandenburg ). 1952-1993 the places were part of the district Calau (until 1990 in the GDR - district Cottbus , 1990-1993 again in the state of Brandenburg). Since the district reform in 1993 they have been in the Oberspreewald-Lausitz district.

On July 1, 1965, Saadow was incorporated into Bronkow. Rutzkau followed on February 1, 1972. On October 26, 2003, Bronkow finally merged with the two neighboring communities Lug and Lipten to form the community Bronkow as part of the municipal reform in the state of Brandenburg .
