Desacralization of Places of Worship. French Case
Abstract
A place of worship is a space that is meant to help you establish a relationship and encounter God. It is a place excluded from secular use. However, it is not devoid of the need to maintain and secure precisely in the secular dimension. The ideal is that once established a place of worship as such lasts undisturbed for years. However, this is not always possible. Churches and chapels are destroyed by the actions of man (e.g. war) and nature (cataclysms). Another dangerous factor is the passage of time with the secularization of the community responsible for the maintenance of the temple. A special case is France, where the property situation of the Church means that it is often possible to find an advertisement of the possibility of buying a church or chapel. And the local community, most often the municipality, has to make a decision to sell the building, which only charges the budget. The aim of the article was to present the situation of the desacralization of a place of worship in France from the perspective of both ecclesiastical and French law.
