The territory of the former Preußisch Eylau district in East Prussia today lies partly in Russia (Bagrationowsk rayon, Kaliningrad oblast) and partly in Poland (Powiat Bartoszycki, Warmia-Masuria voivodeship).

There are some church books from the Kreis Preußisch-Eylau online avaible on archion, but not from the town Preußisch Eylau, which is located in Russia today. There is also nothing on the polish platform geneteka.

Also in the EZA (Evangelisches Zentralarchiv der evangelischen Kirche in Deutschland) are no church book from the parish Preußisch-Eylau avaible (https://ezab.de/kirchenbuecher/kirchenbuch-suche.php).

 Also here (https://ahnen-forscher.com/kirchenbuecher-ostpreussen/) no church books from Pr-E.)

Maybe here you can find something interesting (https://www.tharauvillage.de/kreis-preu%C3%9Fisch-eylau/kreisstadt-preu%C3%9Fisch-eylau/).

Here you find tips where to find the church books from Preußisch Eylau (https://wiki.genealogy.net/Ostpreu%C3%9Fen/Genealogische_Quellen/Kirchbuchbest%C3%A4nde_Kreis_Preu%C3%9Fisch-Eylau#Preu.C3.9Fisch_Eylau). Due to that page you may find books (Baptism 1676/77, 1746-1775, 1800-1874; Marriages 1802-1874, Death 1802-1874) in FamilySearch (copied 1937); after 1874 the churches were not longer responsible for the civil staus documents, so they are not listed, but might be avaible as well. The original books you will find in the Sächsisches Statsarchiv, Abteilung Staatsarchiv Leipzig, Referat 33 (Deutsche Zentralstelle für Genealogie); but not online. You will have to write them to get information.
