history

Bühlow was first mentioned in a document in 1527. The spelling of the village at that time was "Belo", in 1576 the place was called "Bylau". The place name comes from the Sorbian language . The meaning is unclear, Reinhard E. Fischer suspects a name relationship with Behlow in Lieberose , whose place name is derived from the personal name "Bel". Arnošt Muka translated the place name as "White Village", this is also the more likely variant. Until 1937 the place was officially called "Byhlow", the name was then changed by the National Socialists in the German Reich to "Bühlow", which has been retained to this day.

For the year 1844 there were 165 inhabitants in Bühlow who lived in 26 buildings. At that time the village had a full cloth mill , a water mill , a cutting mill and a spinning mill . Ecclesiastically the place belonged to Groß Buckow. In the 19th century, Bühlow was a predominantly Sorbian-speaking village. For his statistics on the Sorbian population in Lusatia, Arnošt Muka determined a total population of 217 in the 1880s, of which 197 were Sorbs and 20 were German. In the following time the number of Sorbian-speaking residents fell sharply. Ernst Tschernik counted a total of 198 inhabitants for his investigations in 1954, but among them there was no native Sorbian speaker and only twelve inhabitants knew Sorbian.

After the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the previously Saxon Lower Lusatia passed to the Kingdom of Prussia . When the new district was formed in 1816, Bühlow came to the Spremberg district . On July 25, 1952, the new Spremberg district in the Cottbus district was formed from the Spremberg district , to which the Bühlow community was assigned. On January 1, 1974, Bühlow was incorporated into the neighboring community of Sellessen . After the fall of the Wall , Bühlow was initially in the Spremberg district in Brandenburg , where the place joined the Hornow / Simmersdorf district as part of Sellessen . After the district reform in December 1993, the community of Sellessen was assigned to the newly formed Spree-Neisse district . On September 27, 1998 Sellessen with its districts Bühlow and Muckrow was released from the Hornow / Simmersdorf office and incorporated into the town of Spremberg .
