In 1840, Bishop Anastazy Sedlak had a Catholic parish set up in Putziger Heisternest, which was also responsible for the localities of Kußfeld, Danziger Heisternest (Bór) and Hela. From then on, the Kussfeld Catholics had to travel about eight kilometers to the church of Heisternest for ninety years if they wanted to attend the service. In 1931 the decision was made to build their own church and construction of a church in neo-Gothic style began. The village church of Schwarzau served as a model for this. The church was consecrated as early as 1933. The place is in the former West Prussia, on the Baltic Sea, on one of the narrowest sections of the Hel Peninsula between the places Chałupy and Jastarnia, about 35 kilometers (as the crow flies) north of Gdansk. Here the strip of land between the open Baltic Sea and the Gdańsk Bay is barely 200 meters wide. [1] During winter storms, the country can be inundated by the open Baltic Sea. [2] The highest dune on the Hel peninsula rises between Kuźnica and Jastarnia. The Libek dune reaches a height of over 12.5 meters. The name goes back to the ship Lübeck, which most likely hit a sandbank and sank here in the 17th century. Source: Wikipaedia
