This article deals with the issue of the spiritual roots of National Socialism in Germany. Coinciding with the sixtieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War, the study examines some views of Polish scholars Leon Halban and Bogdan Suchodolski, who authored several publications on this subject. Professor Leon Halban (whose works include 'Religia w Trzeciej Rzeszy' (Religion in the Third Reich), 1936; 'Problem kultury niemieckiej' (The Problem of German Culture), 1946; 'Religia starogermanska i jej aktualne znaczenie w Niemczech' (The Old German Religion and Its Current Significance in Germany), 1949), believed that the course of events in Germany was determined by a transformation of religious life in that country, which was connected with a crises within Christianity there. Professor Bogdan Suchodolski (author of 'Dusza niemiecka w swietle filozofii' (German Soul in the Light of Philosophy), 1945 and 1947) condemned all of German culture, which he evaluated through the prism of the philosophy of the German nation. In the opinion of the present author, the research undertaken by both scholars demands further investigation, as some of the issues which they discussed are still today of significance.
