The Holy Virgin Mary Church in Kazliškis village was built in 1910, a wooden structure in folk architectural style.

A new chapel in Kazliškis is mentioned in 1796, which collapsed in the second half of the 19th century. In 1901, the residents of Kazliškis requested permission from the consistory to build a chapel. The consistory did not allow construction until the Žiobiškis Church was built. The owner of the Kazliškis manor, A. Brazauskienė, received permission from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to build the chapel and donated a plot of land. By the end of 1910, the wooden chapel was built. At the end of 1911, a permanent priest was appointed, and the chapel became a church. Organs were installed, and from 1915 to 1918, under the leadership of Father Stanislovas Stakele, the church was preserved from destruction, though the organs were damaged, and the bell tower was destroyed. In 1918, Father Matas Nakas was appointed and repaired the church, covered the roof with tin, and fenced the churchyard. In 1922, the parish purchased 12 hectares of land. From 1932 to 1937, Father Juozapas Matulevičius served as priest, built a new rectory, and restored the farm buildings. In 1937, Father Jonas Lapinskas was appointed priest, repainted the interior of the church, and built confessionals. During World War II, part of the church vestments was lost.
