This article considers the short story ‘Kalvárie’ (1952 –54) by Ivo Vodseďálek (b. 1931), which was not published in a state publishing house in the period it was written. In the introduction to the article the writing of ‘Kalvárie’ is put into the context both of events in society as a whole and of Vodseďálek’s work at the time – namely, the collection of verse Trapná poezie (1950) and the short story ‘Kompensace’(1954–55). The author, however, is concerned chiefly with the use of religious motifs and myths in ‘Kalvárie’, which, according to him, Vodseďálek attempted ‘to recreate and demythologize, and to make them a means with which to respond adequately to the challenge of Socialist Realism and materialism’.

This article presents examples of creating of Christian church architecture based on creating sacred spaces in such way to enclose in it the symbolism of the church. On the basis of these examples, the analysis of construction of the temples was carried out. It indicates that architectural solutions based on theological symbols are also the best solution in mechanics of structures. Only its precise adaptation allows to build a perfect church, both in theological and architectural aspects. It turns out that architectural and liturgical forms of the temple depend on the construction- it is a 'reflection' in a terms of space and liturgy of a church, the principles of physics which means lows of nature established by God.
