During the communist regime, the Catholic Church surrounded the nascent religious communities with the greatest care. On the other hand, the party rulers’ idea was to stop all the sacral investments and retain only those built before World War II. By giving the example of the church construction in the residential area of Teofilów in Lodz – guided by the Congregation of the Passion of Jesus Christ (the so-called Passionists), the author intended to present the methods used by the municipal authorities of Lodz in 1956–1970 to combat initiatives related to sacral construction. Starting from the arrival to Lodz, the monks began their efforts to build a sacral object. Unfortunately, the hostile position of the authorities has led to 15 years of treatments that aimed to erect a church in newly built residential area. Because of the nationwide process of blocking any sacral investment, the monks were forced to use all sorts of tricks aimed at avoiding building law that discriminated Catholic Church. The first temporary chapel was prepared in a shed that was a tool magazine and the other one was organized in a private house built by the Passionists who posed as lay people. It was the change of policy after the departure from power of Władysław Gomułka in 1970, which led to the permission from the state authorities to build new church in Teofilów. While studying the topic, the author has analyzed mainly documents found in the State Archive in Lodz, the Archive of New Files in Warsaw and the Archdiocesan Archive in Lodz. According to the author, this publication may be a contribution to similar considerations of the issue of church and sacral building in other local church administration units.

Finding and losing a place. The Łódź underground against the experience of urban everday life The Łódź underground had emerged from the punk aesthetic, yet it ab- sorbed successive genres surprisingly quickly: hardcore, industrial, later also, among others, techno and rave. It utilized diverse forms of expres- sion: most of all sound, but also projections, site-specific actions, graphic design or fashion. The article, drawing from the memories and output of several most important participants of the movement, poses the ques- tion, in what way the underground so easily absorbed new genres and aesthetic patterns on the one hand, while on the other – it remained so strongly separate. The separation is revealed in the tension between experiencing new, experimenting musical and aesthetic trends, and the overwhelming eve- ryday life of the post-industrial city. This tension was the reason why the underground movement was so intensely performative in its character, in which new knowledge and new inspirations were mostly created in action.
