A church building,
often simply called a church, is
a building used for religious activities, particularly worship services. The
term in its architectural sense is most often used by Christians to refer to
their religious buildings but can be used by other religions. In traditional Christian architecture, the
church is often arranged in the shape of a Christian cross. When viewed from plan
view the longest part of a cross is represented by the aisle and the junction
of the cross is located at the altar area. Towers or domes are often added with
the intention of directing the eye of the viewer towards the heavens and
inspiring church visitors. Source
