I think that the article name should be moved to Clandestine churches. Reasons are this is an English language encyclopedia. This was a Europe-wide phenomenon so a Dutch name is not really appropriate. and Clandestine churches is the name Kaplan settled on in writing what is the best modern source on the phenomenon.

I wonder whether you'all understand the literal meaning of "schuil"? Cover, protection, refuge, haven are similes which spring to mind. In a broader sense it may mean housing, accomodation, lodgings. Perhaps the meaning you are seeking lies within the ambit of the word "furtive". But to "schuil" certainly means to take cover, to seek protection [from the weather or from enemies] But hey, its only my home language. Use a good Dutch/English dictionary please. So much rubbish on the net you know. The english [and churches of other countries] were reputed to provide "sanctuary" in time of disputes with royalty. And "sanctuary" is far closer to "schuil" than "clandestine" will ever be! You're welcome!

The article mentions churches established after the Patent of Toleration (1781) in Bohemia (and even before in Slovakia). Some examples can be found on the list of Czech ones or absolutely marvelous one in Slovakia is the Lutheran Church in Hronsek
