Evangelical parish

After the Battle of White Mountain in 1620, Protestant services were banned and the pastors were expelled. The Protestant residents were only tolerated and called heretics . After the tolerance patent was issued in 1782, a Protestant community was able to form again in Hillersdorf. Protestant church registers exist from 1782. Every baptism, marriage and death had to be reported to the Catholic rectory, entered there and the fee paid. It was not until the court decree of November 26, 1829 that non-Catholic pastors were authorized to keep birth, marriage and death registers in their parish. Furthermore, they had to send an exact extract from each entry to the Catholic rectory so that the case could also be recorded in the Catholic register. Baptism, marriage and death certificates were only valid with Catholic approval. Religious equality was only granted on April 8, 1861 by the so-called Protestant patent by Emperor Franz Joseph I.

The foundation stone for the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Tolerance of the Augsburg Confession was laid on April 10, 1782. The building was inaugurated on October 20, 1782.
