Summary/Abstract: The article presents the attitude of the Communist Party towards religious communities on the local level in Kamnik in the first post-war years, particularly the attitude towards the Catholic Church and partly towards Jehovah’s Witnesses, who were the most active non-Catholic religious community in the area. Compared with other areas in Slovenia, the Party’s attitude towards the Church in the Kamnik area was slightly less conflictive in the post-war period; however, we can see the Party’s strong tendencies for controlling the Church and its members and for limiting the Church’s social influence.
