Brüssow received town privileges of Prenzlau and Magdeburg on January 10, 1259, from Knight Heinrich von Stegelitz. The document already mentions a market (with market tolls as a source of income) as well as a priest, which shows that the market and church already existed at that time. The small historical market square was extensively restored in 2002/03 and is a listed monument.

The Baumgarten Protestant village church is a fieldstone church in Baumgarten, a district of the municipality of Schenkenberg in the Uckermark district in Brandenburg. The parish belongs to the Uckermark parish of the Evangelical Church of Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia. The village was first mentioned in 1240 as Bomgarde and was owned by the diocese of Cammins. In this context, the building was first mentioned in a document in 1262. From 1262 to 1667, church patronage initially rested with the Sabine Monastery in Prenzlau, but during this time a portion also passed to von Arnim from Schönermark. During this time, four parish hooves have been handed down as early as 1375. The rectory was desolate in 1543/1544, as was the case in 1600. In that year the priest lived in Prenzlau and had rented out his hooves. In 1613, von Ramin owed the priest the measuring grain from 23 hooves. In 1628, the von Arnim family refused to give the priest his four parish hooves again. The previous building was destroyed and rebuilt in the Thirty Years' War and in 1675. During the Baroque period, the windows were widened and a tower with a hood and lantern was added in 1709. After the fall of the Wall, an extensive restoration took place in 1994/1995.

A perfectly built bike path is a measure of economic development, then there might even be a coffee in Penkun. The mayor should think about that!

The Baumgarten church is a medieval fieldstone building on a rectangular plan with a west tower of the same width from the second half of the 13th century. The church was repeatedly destroyed by fires. In 1687, he is still referred to as wild. By 1709, it was rebuilt with a half-timbered top of the tower. The top of the tower has an open lantern above the curved roof. Also in the 18th century, the windows were replaced and the ridge was lowered. In the years 1994-1997, the church was thoroughly renovated, including painting the interior. The interior dates from the 18th century. The baroque altar of the pulpit has a symmetrical staircase and is decorated with allegorical figures and sculptural decoration. It dates from 1696. The patron chairs to the right and left of the altar have a delicate rococo crown. The baptismal angel from around 1720 was restored in 1998. A special element is the organ gallery with a children's choir located a few steps below. The organ was destroyed in 1945.

The early Gothic fieldstone church from the 13th century, which has been rebuilt many times over the course of history, was built of carefully arranged layers of granite blocks. Around 1900, a receding rectangular choir made of field stone with a brick gable was added from the east. Above the ship-wide church tower on the west side, with a square half-timbered annex from 1837, there is a much smaller, octagonal floor and a pointed spire. The tower, which was renovated and clad in copper in 1990/91, was built in the late 13th century, as was the ogival stepped entrance portal on the west side. The windows in the nave were rebuilt in the Baroque style and provided with bands. Some of the ogival windows on the south side were bricked up, and on the north and south sides, original granite portals were broken out and added. The choir has serrations in the eaves zone and stepped sectional windows. In the church cemetery, surrounded by a field stone wall, there are two war memorials with the names of victims of both world wars from Rossowo.
