The first Slovak-speaking Lutheran deaconess motherhouse in
Liptószentmiklós began its charitable service in 1935 in Czechoslovakia, and later in Slovakia, which was independent from 1939 to 1945. The independence of the institution in Liptószentmiklós from the deaconess institute in Bratislava was strongly influenced by the Slovak nationalist aspirations that were evolving at the time. The study briefly analyses the impact of the autonomy movement, examines the operation of the deaconess motherhouse in Liptószentmiklós from its foundation until its nationalisation in the 1950s, and describes the institution’s relations with domestic and international charities and motherhouses.
