Abstract
Between the age of confessionalization and the comprehensive edicts of tolerance of the late 18th century lies a period in which research emphasises the role of the confession in very different ways. The concept of tolerance existed in the intellectual history, but the regulations of the Peace of Westphalia remained in place. But how was the everyday coexistence of different denominations in a region organised? Using the example of the Catholic minority in the Electorate of Saxony, it is shown that there was no straightforward path to confessional tolerance in the 19th century, but that confessional discipline and legal discrimination against confessional minorities continued to determine everyday life and politics.
