This paper is an attempt to show the main forms of the Eucharistic piety in the Prussian countryside in the Middle Ages on the basis of analysis of the sacrament house in Saint Peter and Paul church in Mątowy Wielkie (Groß Montau). This work will be compared with other objects from the area of the former Teutonic Order State. The iconographic program of the sacrament house door is known today from the historical description, archival photos and the copy of the door, which is kept in the church in Mątowy Wielkie. Originally it consisted of the picture of the Man of Sorrow, placed on the obverse, and the presentation of the priest with the monstrance on the back of the door. The analysis of the iconography of this object in the context of its function allows to draw some conclusions about forms of worship of the Blessed Sacrament widespread in the Prussian countryside: individual adoration of the Eucharistic Christ in the consecrated Host or in His images, as well as Theophoric processions, mostly related to the celebration of Corpus Christi. This work seems to be a testimony to the religious climate in the Prussian Church in the first half of the 15th century and to the role of the clergy in the transformations of the religiosity of the laity, taking place in this time.
