The congregation was here as early as 1697. Jesuit fathers worked in the wooden church as early as the 18th century. Later documents contain information that in 1817, the landowner Michals Riks built a new wooden church with a thatched roof from the materials of the older church. It stood until 1836, when it burned down.
A new stone church in Kaunata was completed in 1850, built on the initiative of the landowner Zuzanna Druve from the Morrison family, dedicating it to the honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
