On June 2, 1390, a squire Henneke Buk pledged the forge and the jug at Thelkow to the squire Claus Bassewitz in addition to several uplifts from the village of Kowalz. Around this time, the Bassewitzs seem to have established their long-term ownership in the place. Landowners were then Lühe (from 1513), Maltzahn (from 1783), then frequent changes and a. Oertzen .
