Organy bezpieczeństwa wobec Niższego Seminarium Duchownego w Bińczu na podstawie archiwaliów Instytutu Pamięci Narodowej

Abstract

Minor seminary in Bincze was established in February 1958. It was destined for adult students without high-school certificate but willing to continue their education on theological studies. For three years of its activity Minor Seminary in Bincze was subjected to surveillance of the communist Security Service, which was closely cooperating with civil servants. Enlisted, secret collaborators handed over information about everyday functioning of the seminary and private lives of its lecturers, alumni and people connected with it. Those actions emerged as a result of the communist policy of secularization intended to fight with catholic religion throughout the country. Minor seminary in Bincze is perceived as a victim of this communist policy, as it was illegally closed on 7th August, 1961.
