The village was founded in 1373 by German settlers probably at the place of an earlier Wends' village of the name Buk (a Beech tree) spelled along with its patronymic suffix -ow.
Until 1920 Buckow was a municipality of the former Teltow district, merged into Berlin with the "Greater Berlin Act".
From 1961 to 1989 its borders with Brandenburg were crossed by the Berlin Wall due to its position in the boundaries of West Berlin with East Germany.

In Goldammerstraße 34 is situated an historical smock mill, the Jungfernmühle, one of the oldest of Berlin.
It was built in 1753 (or 1757) and it has only shutter wing and wind rose mockups without functions.
Active until 1980 to ground grain into flour, it was the last mill used in the city and today its walls accommodate a restaurant.
