history

Milow was first mentioned in a document in 1321. The Knights of Mylow resided in Milow for several generations. No reliable information has been passed on about the creation of their manor. It is only proven that the last Milow knight, Michel von Mylow, died in 1485 without a heir. Milow was completely destroyed in the Thirty Years War between Brandenburg and Swedish Pomerania in the years 1637–42 and was then uninhabited for a long time. In 1688, 15 of the 17 farms in Milow were still lying idle, and only now was the makeshift repair of the church windows begun. The roof of the Milow Church was not even rebuilt until 1699. In 1711, 46 Hufen arable land was again cultivated in Milow, hunting was carried out in the nearby forests and fishing was carried out in the village lake.

In the 18th century, Milow was built as the von Arnim estate and expanded continuously. With the insolvency of the Milower estate in the 1930s, it was sold to Landgesellschaft Eigen Scholle GmbH, which began with the “settlement”. In the years 1934–36, a total of 32 new farmer positions were created and young farmer families from other regions of the German Empire settled in Milow. The new farmer sites were built south of the existing historic center of Milow along two ring roads with side ditches. Due to the influx of refugees after the Second World War, the population rose from 370 to more than 600 people. After the war, the village management plan served as a preparation for the establishment of the Agricultural Production Cooperative III (LPG) "Neuer Weg" Milow in 1953, in which all Milow farmers became full or non-full members who were not resettlers. Those farmers who had settled in 1934 were united in their own LPG I. As part of the LPG, the livestock and seed stocks were inventoried and the arable land was jointly cultivated. After the reunification and the dissolution of the GDR districts, the Milower people voted in a referendum to remain in the state of Brandenburg. In 2015 there were 177 people in Milow.
