Concordat of 1933

The Reichskonkordat or Concordat of 1933 was a treaty negotiated between the Vatican and the Nazi regime.

Article 21 of the Concordat with the Catholic Church:


 * “Catholic religious instruction in elementary, senior, secondary and vocational schools constitutes a regular portion of the curriculum, and is to be taught in accordance with the principles of the Catholic Church. In religious instruction, special care will be taken to inculcate patriotic, civic and social consciousness and sense of duty in the spirit of the Christian Faith and the moral code, precisely as in the case of other subjects.”
