In 1534, the reformer Prince Georg III of Anhalt-Dessau introduced the Lutheran Reformation in Jeßnitz. From then until the Second World War, only very few Catholics lived in Jeßnitz.
From 1934 onwards, Jeßnitz belonged to the Wolfen branch church parish that had been founded at that time. From 1936 onwards, Roman Catholic services were held in Jeßnitz in the Goldenes Lamm inn until this was banned by the National Socialist rulers in 1939. On April 15, 1940, the Raguhn-Jeßnitz branch church parish was established, which had its headquarters in Raguhn.
