Exhibition on persecution of churches under communism

An exhibition of photos and documents depicting persecution of priests and believers in Hungary’s Kadar era (1956-1988) opened in Budapest on Friday.

The display at the cultural centre of the Jesuit Order was organised by the Hungarian Catholic, Reformed and Lutheran churches, member of the organising team Gabor Tabajdi told reporters.The exhibition and its accompanying conference were designed to present the ways and mechanisms the one-time party-state applied to blackmail members of religious communities to spy on their fellow-believers, Tabajdi said.
