The goal of this paper is to describe the role of Tomáš G. Masaryk in the so-called Cultural Struggle Attempt in Czechoslovakia shortly after World War I. Masaryk is well known for his anti-catholic opinions and beliefs as well as for his struggles with the Roman Catholic Church during the era of the Austrian Monarchy. The paper suggests that Masaryk did not pursue his personal anti-catholic ideas in his policy toward the church when he became president. Instead, he enacted policies which were advantageous and protective for the Catholic Church. The role of Masaryk is presented on the issues of the crisis in the Catholic Church and the creation of the secessionist Czechoslovak church, the anti-catholic movement and the separation of church and state. Despite this positive shift in Masaryk’s views, it is necessary to mention that Masaryk’s ideas were used on a large scale in the campaign against the Catholic Church at the beginning of the Czechoslovak Republic.
