Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the life of Václav Mikulecký – a priest of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church – and his fight with an atheistic regime in post-war Czechoslovakia. It focuses on the important events of his life that are partially connected with the events in the Czechoslovak Hussite Church. The state along with the StB gradually banned all Václav Mikulecký’s religious activities within the Church. Thus the second part of the paper deals with his tireless effort to spread the word of Jesus Christ again and with his activities outside the Church.
