In 1835, the parish priest of Białuty made an agreement with the Calvinists to celebrate four Masses a year in the chapel of the former Teutonic castle in Działdowo. The first Mass was celebrated on the Sunday after the Epiphany in 1837. The mission was founded on 14 October 1858, and Theodor Węglikowski became its first priest. The cornerstone blessing ceremony was held on 12 June 1861. The church "was a small temple with timber framing, and the parish house featured a classroom and accommodation for the priest and the teacher. The parish house was completely refurbished in 1893, and a new Neogothic church dedicated to St. Adalbert was built in 1896. The church was consecrated on 9 June 1900. A private Catholic school was founded in Działdowo on 4 May 1864, and in Narzym on 2 January 1884. The construction effort, the priest's and the teacher's wages were funded by the St. Boniface Association in Paderborn, which operated in the Bishopric of Culm under the name of St. Boniface and St. Adalbert Association in Pelplin.
