The article describes the origins and development of the parish in Radostowo in 1945. The main attention was paid to changes in the equipment of the church, pastoral development, operation of the parish school, religious associations and pastors. Radostowo was founded in the years 1333-1342. Its location was approved in 1362 by Bishop Jan Stryprock and back the church was dated. The first known probost was Thomas Kranch, mentioned in 1482. In 1888-1890 there was conducted a restauration of the interior. The parish was not large. In 1777 Easter Holy Communion was taken by 726 people and 33 children were baptized. In 1901 (after the parish in Frączki was excluded) Easter Holy Communion was taken by 1010 and in 1941 by 1227 people. After World War II the parish did not have its own parish priest for many years until 1 July 1990 when rev. Jan Mucha became the probost and now rev. Marek Choromański has ministered to the parish.

In 2013, in Warmia there were organised celebrations devoted to the 400-year anniversary of the death of Blessed Regina Protmann, the foundress of the Congregation of the Devout Virgins of St. Catherine, Virgin and Martyr, commonly called „katarzynki”. On this occasion, a number of initiatives have been taken to remember the person but also the environment in which she lived and worked. Particular attention was paid to Braniewo, where she was born and where up till now there has stood a provincial house of the congregation. The article is therefore an attempt to present the situation in the city in the latter half of the 16th century. First of all, we focus on a dynamic development of education - a high school and a seminary were founded in 1565, and in 1578 there was established a papal seminary. Also, a boarding school for young people and a dormitory for poor students were built. All these institutions were administered by the Jesuits. Thanks to their pastoral work and the commitment of the bishops of Warmia, particularly Stanislaus Hosius and Marcin Kromer, they managed to avoid bringing Lutheranism despite the fact that the new religion had supporters among the members of the city council. The city developed as crafts and trade, which was facilitated by membership in the Hanseatic League. On the basis of vital records, it was found that on an average 215 children were baptized annually. Among the most popular names given for girls were Anna, then Gertruda and Barbara. Among the boys in the first place should be mentioned George, then John, Peter and Andrew. In 1586 the quintuplets were born. Registered marriages were much less - an average of 56 per year. The article also presents the appearance of the city, gives a list of parish priests and mayors of that period, the equipment temples and operations of hospitals. Based on the analyzes it can be concluded that Braniewo was a well-organized city with a well-functioning education at all levels of education. But pride to Braniewo was also brought by the foundress of the Congregation of the Devout Virgins of St. Catherine, Virgin and Martyr, Regina Protmann, whose sister from the beginning served in many dimensions of the social life: they took care of the sick, looked after the education of girls and were responsible for the decoration of churches. Participating in the 19th century in foreign missions they promoted the city of their foundress in many countries on different continents, especially in South America and Africa.
