    In 1468, the knight Albrecht von Vogt received Sątoczno from the Teutonic Knights as a reward for participating in the war against Poland and Lithuania. After his death, the property was inherited by his daughter, who married the owner of the neighboring estate, Botha von Eulenburg. From his surname, Sątoczno took its former name Leunenburg. In 1526, Valentin Vuge from Elbląg was the parish priest of the local parish belonging to the archipresbytery in Sępopol. At that time, the parish in Sątoczno included the villages of Glitajny, Kałwągi, Wągniki, Błuskajmy, Studzieniec, Słępy and Kaskajmy. Poles probably also lived there, because in 1581 the school teacher received additional remuneration for reading and commenting on the Gospel and the catechism in Polish.

    In the middle of the 17th century, a diaconate was established here especially for Polish parishioners. Polish deacons taught in Sątoczno until 1697. The church in Sątoczno was erected in the years 1326–1328 on the site of the hillfort established by the Teutonic Order. It was located at the confluence of the Sajna and Gubra rivers. The oldest part of the building is the tower, its walls have survived intact from the first half of the 14th century. There was room for three bells in the belfry. The oldest bell from 1593 has been lost, the second - the largest bell from 1735 - is ringing now in the commune of Borfelde near Hildesheim in Germany. The remaining bell bears the inscription: God to be honored, Christians to be encouraged.

    In 1848, at the behest of Pastor Simon Jakub Gammel, the carpenter Rockel made an apparent wooden stellar vault over the nave. The western part of the nave is closed by a choir with an organ. It was built in 1745 by Adam Gottllob Casparini, the royal organ builder. They were enlarged in 1898. The organ has a rococo ornamentation. The chancel is separated from the nave by a monumental rainbow arch. The altar is made of wood. It was made in 1824 by the sculptor Bierreichel. In the middle of the presbytery there was a baptismal font made of Italian "Carvara" marble. It was purchased in Królewiec in 1828. [10/12/2014]] The bowl of the baptismal font was filled with a large, brass bowl weighing about 20 kilograms. It dates back to 1580. In 1828, the church's floor was covered with Swedish stone slabs. The courtyard of the church was originally a cemetery, in 1819 a park was established that still serves this purpose.
