Church history
Until 1848 the parishioners in the area of the later parish Turosülen (Mittenheide) were parish in the Evangelical Church of Johannisburg . In the year the first church was built, a Protestant parish was founded. Until 1945 it belonged to the church district Johannisburg in the church province of East Prussia of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union .
At the 1925 census, 3,000 parishioners belonged to the Turoselte parish, who lived in a large parish . The state authorities were responsible for church patronage .
Flight and expulsion of the local population caused the work of the Protestant Church to collapse after 1945. The few Protestant residents living here today belong to the parish in the district town of Pisz (Johannisburg) , which belongs to the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Poland .
