Church building
As a successor to an earlier church, a new church was built in 1769 by Prince Leopold von Anhalt-Dessau . It was a simple building without a tower, with a half-timbered belfry. Altar and pulpit (from the years 1638/39) still came from the old church, both were combined to form a pulpit altar in 1770. The organ was purchased in 1836 by the Reformed Church in Memel (now Lithuanian: Klaipėda).
The church survived the war unscathed. After that it was used as a warehouse by the Red Army for a purpose other than intended. The church's equipment was destroyed. After 1995, the villagers used the building as a reservoir for building materials. Accordingly, only ruinous remains of the church wall remain today.
Parish
Puschdorf was already a church village in the pre-Reformation period. A parish church already existed in 1486. The Reformation found its way here early on. Initially part of the Wehlau inspection (today in Russian: Snamensk), Puschdorf was then integrated into the Insterburg parish in the church province of East Prussia of the Church of the Old Prussian Union until 1945 . Flight and expulsion of the local population put an end to church life. Today, Pushkarjowo is in the catchment area of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Talpaki (Taplacken) , a subsidiary of the Resurrection Church in Kaliningrad (Königsberg) in the Kaliningrad provost of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of European Russia .
