Sorry, it wasn’t phrased well. The Nazis let the members of the Zentrum live and sometimes maintain their positions, partly thanks to their strong ties or leadership roles in the Catholic Church. It wasn’t even actually dissolved by the Nazis, unlike their competition, they voluntarily dissolved after losing support and it was afterwards that the Nazis passed the Law Against the Formation of Parties.

Thanks for elaborating. That’s a much better description of what happened.
