The castle, which was first documented in 1256, was probably built between 1239 and 1250 by the Margraves of Brandenburg. It should protect the Ascanian areas of the Uckermark against Pomerania and Mecklenburg. Between 1271 and 1311 there is evidence that several Margraves of Brandenburg stayed at the castle. The New Bower is one of the few residential towers with a high entrance that have survived in Brandenburg.
After the Ascanians died out, the owners of the castle changed frequently. In 1447 the lords of Holtzendorff came into possession of the castle. In 1463 the lords of Arnim received the castle with the rule as a fief. It becomes one of the ancestral homes of the Lords of Arnim. The castle was largely destroyed in 1637 during the Thirty Years' War.
