- There was no shortage of well-known and respected personalities among the clergy and teachers, including: in the years 1588 to 1599 an outstanding, albeit controversial, representative of Lutheran Orthodoxy and supervisor of the school system Benedikt Morgenstern Johann Borawski (Barawski. Zbarawski, 1618-1624 ) - a poet and courtly preacher of the royal sister Anna Vasa in her residence in Strasburg (Brodnica), Severin Rosentreter (1632-1665) - participant of the famous Colloquium Charitativum in Thorn in 1645, Otto Matthesius (1656-1659) - Graduated from the Jesuit schools in Vilnius and the universities in Königsberg and Rostock Johann Herbinius (1677-1679) - an esteemed theologian,Pedagogue and philanthropist Johann Moneta (1692-1696) - author of a textbook for Polish grammar and Jacob Schmidt - editor of a revised edition of the Polish Danzig Bible in the 18th century.
After Graudenz was occupied by Prussia as a result of the first partition of Poland in 1772, a small church was inaugurated on the market in 1785, where services were held in Polish for some time. Most of the construction was financed by Friedrich II. In the years 1896 to 1898 the too small Friedrichskirche was replaced by a large parish church in today's Mickiewicza-Str. replaced (currently Roman Catholic). The majority of the inhabitants of Graudenz were Protestants, they also owned a large garrison church (built between 1897 and 1900, destroyed during World War II). The construction of a third church was also planned. A modern meeting house and the city mission had large halls, and there were also some charity halls and cemeteries.

- Possibly the father of Martin and the Koschneiderei group... We think that Martin's son Georg married a Catholic girl as his family was definitely Lutheran prior to that.
