The paper attempts to present the role of Jan Hus and of the Hussite movement in the Czechoslovak Church (CSC), known as the Czechoslovak Hussite Church (CSHC) as of 1971. It notes that after the creation of CSC in 1920 a rather romantic reminiscence of Jan Hus prevailed in the church nourished by Masaryk’s ideal of humanity, which gave rise to a broad symbolic, liturgical, artistic and partly ideological formation. It describes the disintegration of identity in the CSC in the totalitarian crises of the Czechoslovak state in the period of Nazism and Communism, and how CSC helped overcome these crises by symbols and ideas of the Hussite tradition, and how the idea of the extension of the name of CSC through the term "Hussite" was born at the end of the 1960s. It was adopted by the Church during the sixth Assembly of CSC in 1971. This decision had a remarkable effect on the quality and professionalism of the study of Hus’ works and other texts coming from the Hussite tradition.
