This study is concerned with the post-White Mountain negotiations on ecclesiastical property, establishment of the salt treaty and the cassa salis administration between 1630 and 1710. It explains the main mechanisms of the ecclesiastical salt treasury, comments on the yields from the salt tax and various points where these resources were spent. The main intent was to establish of four new bishoprics in Bohemia, which was only partly achieved in the 17th century. At the end of the 17th century, the effort to reconstruct the parish network led to establishment of a separate treasure, the so-called cassa parochorum. Throughout the period, the papal curia feared that the Prague archbishops might manage the salt treasury independently. In the end, dissatisfaction with its management led to stricter supervision by the apostolic nuncios and visitations to cassa salis in 1710.

This study is concerned with the cassa salis administration from the moment Charles VI took the throne to the moment when the cassa salis was incorporated into the Provincial Religious Fund in 1782. During the reign of Charles VI , church representatives strove to have at least a part of the Emperor’s high debt settled, but they succeeded only partially. Due to permanent financial issues of the Habsburg Monarchy, rulers actually kept asking for new loans and for the old debts to be forgiven. Throughout the entire studied period, the Vienna Court preferred establishing new parishes to establishing another bishopric. Since the beginning of the reign of Maria Theresa, the state started to interfere in the cassa salis administration with an ever-growing intensity, which ultimately led to a suspension of subsidies that the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith decided on. The pressure of the Vienna Court – which was also supported by the Prague Archbishop Příchovský – culminated in the period 1767–1770 when the Papal Curia was deprived of the right to distribute financial means from the treasury. Since then, the Prague Archbishop was responsible for creating a list of institutions that were to be supported and the list was preapproved by the sovereign. The Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith was issuing only formal decrees on the awarded subsidies.
