The author presents the most significant decisions of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the right to marriage for members of the LGBT community. From the analyzed cases, we can follow the development of this right for members of the LGBT community, on the basis of which they were given the opportunity to conclude the so-called civil partnership. At the same time, the author's paper distinguishes between cases in which there has been a change of sex and, accordingly, certain problems with regard to the exercise of rights under Article 12 of the Convention.
