Sacred places are not static entities but reveal a historical dynamic. They are the result of cultural developments and have varied multidimensional levels of significance. They are places where time is, as it were, suspended, and they are points where holy times and holy places meet. Sacred places are places apart. It is this specificity in the context of the Christian religions of the West that 'Loci sacri' wishes to unveil by bringing together specialists from various disciplines, countries, and Christian denominations. One of the questions is why some sites have for centuries proven to be so popular while others have not. Another topic is the way in which extraordinary natural sites have been designated as sacred and given new meaning, primarily by means of architecture. "Loci sacri" also explores the 'eternal' character of this sacred status. 410 0$aKADOC studies on religion, culture, and society ;$v9. 606 $aSacred space 606 $aShrines 606 $aReligious facilities 606 $aChristianity 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSacred space. 615 0$aShrines. 615 0$aReligious facilities. 615 0$aChristianity. 676 $a230 702 $aCoomans$b Thomas 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463977103321 996 $aLoci sacri$91498367 997 $aUNINA
