Abstract

In the picture of the horror caused in 20th century by totalitarianisms, a far too little space is dedicated for methods and results of Soviet communist regime. This article tries to show what Catholic priests staying for some time in Soviet Russia experienced. The presented group of priests was in many different ways connected with Włocławek diocese – by the origins or their fates after getting out from Soviet Russia.
