The essay concentrates on re-Catholicization of Bohemian towns in the 1620s. The authors describe the administrative component of a pressure applied to change the confession of predominantly non-Catholic population, particularly administrative processes that acquired significant individual elements over the researched period. The pressure involved registers on the town citizens’ confession, which were used as a source/base for an ensuing re-Catholicization process. The sekond individual element regarded personal negotiations with the still non-Catholic burghers and other citizens, which were managed by various power authorities active in royal or manorial towns.
