The parish in Krynica Morska is under the pastoral care of the Capuchin friars of the Province of Krakow.
The church was officially established as a parish on July 25, 1974, by Bishop Bernard Czapliński.
Before the current church was established, religious services in the area were often held in temporary wooden structures due to the town's shifting postwar population.
The interior contains elements reflecting Franciscan spirituality, emphasizing simplicity and community.
The parish serves a unique coastal territory that is isolated from the mainland by the Vistula Lagoon.
The Church of St. Peter and St. Francis of Assisi in Krynica Morska is a Roman Catholic parish church served by the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin. The facility functions as the center of the local parish, which was canonically erected in 1974. The architecture is characterized by a modern design typical of late 20th-century Polish religious construction. It serves both the local population and the seasonal influx of tourists visiting the Vistula Spit. The site includes a rectory and associated pastoral facilities maintained by the Capuchin friars. It remains the primary religious gathering point in the coastal town of Krynica Morska.
