The research focused on the events happening in the Protective Zone in 1939 ˗ 1945. The author draws from analysing the works already published as well as information available in the various Slovak archives. The research presents the following conclusions. Since March 1939, due to the Protective Zone location, the civilians were getting into wider contact with the German Armed Forces. In addition to the common military activities carried out by any army, the lively encounter was taking place even in the sports or cultural area. The drawback of the stay of the German Armed Forces included the recurring issues caused by the indecent behaviour of the German soldiers. The research results open certain new questions related to the history of Záhorie as well as the nature of the stay of the German Armed Forces in the Protective Zone. Further research is needed to provide new and deeper answers.
