- Note
- "Sacred, religious and holy structures often evolved over centuries and were the largest buildings in the world, prior to the modern skyscraper.[citation needed] While the various styles employed in sacred architecture sometimes reflected trends in other structures, these styles also remained unique from the contemporary architecture used in other structures. With the rise of Abrahamic monotheisms (particularly Christianity and Islam), religious buildings increasingly became centres of worship, prayer and meditation.[citation needed]
Bimah of Princes Road Synagogue in Liverpool, EnglandThe Western scholarly discipline of the history of architecture itself closely follows the history of religious architecture from ancient times until the Baroque period, at least. Sacred geometry, iconography, and the use of sophisticated semiotics such as signs, symbols and religious motifs are endemic to sacred architecture." - (en.wikipedia.org 30.09.2019)
