Church building
The church in Schaaken Church , of which only a ruin remains today, was a plastered stone and brick building typical of Samland with a three-sided closed choir and dates from the 14th century. The church, which was undamaged in World War II, fell into disrepair in the post-war years. In 1966 the top of the tower was removed and the roof, which was newly covered with asbestos panels, lasted until the 1980s. Today the outer walls, the tower and the triumphal arch between the nave and the choir are still preserved.
