The history reaches far back into the Middle Ages. There were the peasant serfs of the Knights of Queer who made numerous forays even to the Uckermark, and their castle (from the foundation walls are still visible today ) 1500 by Duke Erich IX. was attacked and destroyed. Great Poplow was then the property of the family von Manteuffel, whose descendants made in the 17th century the nearby village Kollatz ( Kołacz ) to their place of residence. During this time, small Poplow has arisen in Manteuffel 's possession. Then the manors still often changed their owners. Since the second half of the 19th century the manor was in the possession of Woeller family. Walter Woeller, who took over the estate in the early 20th century by his father Friedrich Woeller, it managed up to the failed escape in the spring of 1945 and the subsequent expulsion of 1946.
In 1939 Poplow had 712 inhabitants in 178 households. The majority lived from agriculture, but the craft with a tailor, shoemaker, blacksmith, wheelwright and gardening was also well represented. At that time the village was assigned to the Belgard.
