- Authors

- Abstract
The Nazi dictatorship’s religious policy exhibited a very broad spectrum of approaches, actions and strategies, especially with regard to the Free Churches. From advocacy through to dissolution reaching across the entire empire, and including calculated persecution measures, the various courses of action for different party and state organs served more than adequately on the different levels of the ruling hierarchy. In this article, some of the characteristics and guiding principles of the Nazi religious policy will be analysed and presented in detail, covering the different phases of the dictatorship and with regard to the Free Churches and smaller religious communities. In the process, the Free Churches reaction to the multiple facets of the religious policy measures will also be included in the comprehensive presentation.
