Summary/Abstract: The goal of the paper is to present in a brief digest of the basic points of Masaryk’s concept of religion and above all to point at his relationship to Christianity. The text presents the most significant life, social, philosophical and religious influences upon Masaryk’s thought and it gives notice to some less stressed connections that formed his attitude to the Christian faith. One part of the paper is also a sufficient mapping of opinions and critical assessments of other authors of his time as well as contemporary ones that gave heed to Masaryk´s theory of religion.
