| Summary: | In this study, we explored the transformations of religiosity within the town of Tachov region, targeting particularly the majority religious group, i.e. the Roman Catholics (who, despite the sharp decline demonstrated in the 2011 census, remain the most numerous confession in the region). We used both hard and soft data to demonstrate that this “strongly Catholic reality of the region”, which has shaped the religious discourse and served as a major source of religious memory is, however, rather problematic. The most general conclusion that we came to was that even though many migrants who came to the region after the World War II were religious (and most of them Catholics), they were not tied to the area through any family, cultural, social or religious ties. Secondly, we conclude that religious ties created during communism have been rather week ever since their creation. |
