Summary/Abstract: In Galicia, religion as a school subject played an important role in education. Important components of it were liturgics and Biblical studies. School textbooks were the most important didactic tool in the process of education. Throughout the several decades when Galicia was autonomous, works by Ludwik Lewartowski, Antoni Tyc, Stanisław Puszet, Władysław Jougan, Tomasz Dąbrowski, and Szczepan Szydelski, among others, were used. In books that were updated over time, these authors tried to take into consideration didactic guidelines as well as the latest archaeological discoveries. Furthermore, there were numerous discussions in the press and during meetings of catechists whose purpose was the modernization of the process of education and increasing the educational impact on students.
