Religions
Church building
As early as 1354 there was a chapel visible from afar in Claussen, the Clausula Mariana . It was replaced by a new church in 1754, which burned down in 1858 and was replaced in 1884 by the neo-Gothic church that still stands today. It was a Protestant church until 1945, and since 1947 it has served as a Roman Catholic church , which bears the name Kościół Matki Bożej Wspomożenia Wiernych ( German Church of the Mother of God, Help of Christians ).
Parish
Evangelical
Since the 16th century, Protestant clergy of the Lutheran creed have officiated at the parish church in Klaussen . In 1925 the parish had 3,088 parishioners who lived in almost 20 parish places. Until 1945 the parish of Klaussen was part of the church district of Lyck in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union . Flight and expulsion of the local population put an end to community life after 1945. The few Protestant church members living in the Klusy region today stick to the parish in the town of Ełk (Lyck) , a subsidiary of the Pisz parish (Johannisburg) in the Masurian diocese of the Evangelical Augsburg Church in Poland .
Roman Catholic
Until 1945 only very few Catholics lived in the Klaussen area. Your parish church was that in the then district town of Lyck (Ełk) in the deanery Masuria II (seat: Johannisburg ) in the diocese of Warmia . After 1945, numerous new Polish citizens settled here, almost without exception of the Roman Catholic denomination. From 1947 they used the previously evangelical church as their church, which is now also a parish church again. The parish with the branch churches in Rożyńsk (Rosinsko , 1938 to 1945 Rosenheide) and in Skomack Wielki (Skomatzko , 1938 to 1945 Dippelsee) belongs to the deanery Ełk - Świętej Rodziny in the diocese of Ełk of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland .
