The Guerra de los Padres ("War of the Priests") was a violent political crisis that took place in Honduras between April and June 1861. A conflict between the government and the clergy began when President José Santos Guardiola agreed to permit freedom of worship to the inhabitants of the Bay Islands, a predominantly Protestant colony of Britain. This contravened the Constitution of 1848.[1][2]
