The name Buckow refers to the Old Sorbian Bukov , a place where there are red beeches ( buk = red beech).

The first documentary mention was found in 1346 with Bockaw . Over the centuries the name changes to the current spelling via 1494 Bukow , 1496 Buko .

The first settlement was made by the Slavs . A Slavic rampart from the 8th - 10th centuries , popularly known as the "Schwedenschanze", is located in the village. The church and cemetery have been located within the former ramparts since the 13th century . The actual inner area of ​​the castle was about 40 by 60 meters , the complex was surrounded by a wide, shallow moat, the access gate was in the north and the wall height is still up to 4 m, parts of the wall on the south side were removed during the construction of the church , stone packings were found, which make up the lower part of the wall. From here the path leads to the former school house and the parish farm.

To the south, about 1300 m away, there was another rampart from the same period, which was constructed in a similar way and had an inner diameter of about 190 m. Remnants of an old Slavic settlement, which was inhabited until the 10th - 11th centuries , were found when the soil was cleared in the southeastern area after the First World War . Thereby one came across stones and about 1 m long sharpened wooden posts. Today the area is a listed building and has been planted with some trees to secure the area. The cultivation of the fields subsequently ensured that large parts of it were flattened to such an extent that the wall as such can hardly be recognized.

During excavations on behalf of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR in the 1960s around the church, u. a. Shards with crest decorations and oak stakes , whether it was a low castle as a noble seat , a refuge or a sanctuary , remained unclear.

During the Thirty Years' War , the wall around the church served the villagers as protection from the Swedes, hence the name "Schwedenschanze". During the wars of liberation in 1813, the farmers holed up here against Napoleon's French troops .

The old church was demolished in 1732 because it was in disrepair and in 1737 the present church was rebuilt using old materials. It presents itself in the form of a rectangular plastered building , on the west side with a square tower boarded up in the upper part. It houses two bells, one from 1841 from the bell foundry Johann Carl Hackenschmidt from Berlin . The hewn tent roof has a ball, a weather vane with the year “2003” and a weather vane with the year “1737”. The spire was removed and restored after storm damage in 1996.

Inside there is a wooden pulpit altar with a sound cover . This bears the initials "FR" ("Fridericus Rex") and a crown. The baptism is also wooden, octagonal and dates from the time the altar was built. The altar table and lectern are more recent. The organ in the west gallery from 1876 comes from the organ building company Teschner from Fürstenwalde, equipped with a manual , pedal and twelve stops . The horseshoe gallery dates from the construction period, the ceiling consists of beams and boards.

The church and ramparts are under monument protection.
