The first mention in written sources of a church in this place comes from 1209[2]. It was a wooden church erected during the reign of the Dukes of Gdańsk[3][4]. In the years 1550–1603 it was in the hands of Protestants. The brick church was founded by the starost of Wejherowo, Jakub Wejher[2]. It was built in the years 1644–1647[2]. At the beginning of the 18th century, a tower was added to the body of the church[2]. In the years 1926-1927, the temple was subjected to another, thorough expansion according to plans drawn up by Fenner, a master builder from Człuchów[2]. A new nave was added perpendicularly to the existing church so that the former nave became a transept of the new layout. In this way, the axis of the church, originally oriented, was on the north-south line. At the same time, the walls of the church were raised by 4 meters, and the tower from 25 meters to 38.5 meters in height[3]. In 1926, two stained glass windows by Theo Landmann were created for the temple, depicting the Baptism of Christ in Jordan[5] and Christ the King[6].
