Hlinka Guard, militia maintained by the Hlinka's Slovak People's Party created shortly before Hlinka's death, later participated in the Holocaust in Slovakia. In Communist Czechoslovakia Hlinka was portrayed as a "clerofascist". After the fall of Communism, Hlinka became again a respected person, mostly to nationalist sympathisers and to Christian democratic organisations, while the rest of current Slovak society seems mostly indifferent towards Hlinka's memory. Hlinka's image could be found on the Slovak 1000-crown banknote, before Slovakia's adoption of the Euro in 2009. A motion in the Parliament of Slovakia to proclaim him "father of the nation" nearly passed in September 2007. Now Andrej Hlinka, is mostly commemorated in his native Černová, where his House can be found. The exhibit is open to the public. Recently , the Mausoleum of Andrej Hlinka in Ružomberok was reopened.
