The current (brick) Rykantai St. The Trinity Church is one of the oldest churches in Trakai district. Her in 1585 built by A. Tolvaišas, the owner of the Rykantai Manor. At that time, even those persons who had visited the most important European cities were amazed at the beauty of the church. 1630 A. Tolvaiš was buried together with his wife in the basement of this church. Tolvaiša had no descendants, so the parish of Rykantais, according to further kinship ties, went to the Oginskis, who professed Catholicism. in 1655 During the Polish-Lithuanian war with Russia, the Rykantai Church was heavily damaged and looted and stood empty for several years. Around 1667 the church was repaired by Marcijonas Oginskis, chancellor of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. in 1688 Marcijonas Oginskis transferred the church to the Trakai Dominican Monastery and the Rykantai Church became Catholic.
