history

The oldest known documentary mention of Wulkows is dated to 1361. The basic word from which the Slavic place name is derived means wolf . The von Schapelow family ruled from 1361 to 1646. From 1608 a manor can be found in the place . Through his marriage to Margarete Tugendreich von Schapelow, Georg von Derfflinger became the owner of Wulkow in 1646. Since the last son of Georg von Derfflinger died childless, Wulkow and Hermersdorf came into the possession of Rittmeister Georg Friedrich von Ziethen.

In 1792 Albrecht Wilhelm von Pannewitz, district administrator of the Nieder-Barnim district and canon of Halberstadt , bought the three manors Wulkow, Hermersdorf and Trebnitz for 109,000 thalers . In 1825 von Pannewitz died childless.

When Wilhelmine von Pannewitz married Field Marshal Wilhelm Magnus von Brünneck , the manors Wulkow, Trebnitz and Hermersdorf came into the possession of the von Brünneck family after their death. In 1945, Dr. Wilhelm von Brünneck was the last owner of Gut Wulkow.

From March 2, 1944 to February 3, 1945, there was a satellite camp of the Theresienstadt concentration camp in Wulkow .
