Evangelisches Leben in und um Marienburg/Malbork bis 1772
Evangelical life in Malbork/Marienburg and environs until 1772

Summary/Abstract: This work is an outline of the history of evangelical centers at the mouth of the Vistula River in the years 1526-1772, because the central point of ref¬erence is the church St. George in Malbork (German: Marienburg). Based on historical sources it shows the impact of the faith on the life of the Evangeli¬cal Church. Shows the tension arising between the living forms of the Re¬formed religion and the old Catholic Church. New Lutheran understanding of faith were reflected in the way of life, manifesting itself in children's edu¬cation, pastoral care and overall spiritual climate. Protestantism on the banks of Vistula and Nogat rivers assisted in everyday life, giving the power as well, to overcome the sometimes harsh living conditions.
