The verdict of the Supreme Administrative Court refers to the restriction of the use of the sound system by the parish and, from a legal point of view, is the correct decision that could have been made on the basis of the content of Article 156 of the Environmental Protection Act. With this solution, the legislator has expressed the protection of freedom and liberty in strictly legally defined situations. However, if the production of sound is not directly related to the performance of religious services or other religious activities in the context of public worship, it is currently not legally permissible and, as such, it is not allowed, since the production of sound in the form of an announcement as a call to individual prayer by the faithful merely informs about a specific prayer at a specific time of day.
