The church building in Parys, currently dedicated to Our Lady of Perpetual Help, was built in several stages. In the years 1370-1380 only the eastern part of the church was built. The western was founded around the year 1400. The church tower was built in the first half of the 15th century. The church was renovated in the 16th century.
The building as such represents the Gothic style. The eastern facade was rebuilt in Baroque style in 1703. Not much of the antique equipment has survived in the church. Noteworthy is the Baroque altar, probably from the early 18th century, and a brass bell from 1605, located in the bell tower. During the Reformation, the church was taken over by the Protestants. Earlier, the church belonged to the archbishop’s office in Sępopol. Currently, the temple is a branch of the Roman Catholic parish in Korsze.
