The parish came into being here at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Until the church was built, the school building was used, with an altar and a baptismal font placed in it. In 1906 the foundation stone of the house of God was laid, and it was consecrated on 22 December 1907.
The church was built of unplastered brick, with a handsome tower and a west gable in keeping with the architecture of the Teutonic Order.
The chancel extension is on the east, with a sacristy adjoining it on the south. Paired windows on two levels. On the upper level they alternate with a single plastered blind window. Inside, the church had an altar, a pulpit, an organ and a baptismal font. There were two bells in the tower.
After the Second World War the church was intact and was used as a building materials store. For convenience the central entrance to the tower was widened and for a time was just a square hole. The paintings inside the chancel survived.
In 2003 the roof collapsed, and it was decided to hand the church over to the Orthodox Church. After the repairs it looks splendid, and the old cross has even been kept.
