- Church architecture or ecclesiastical architecture refers to the architecture of buildings of Christian churches. It has evolved over the two thousand years of the Christian religion, partly by innovation and partly by imitating other architectural styles as well as responding to changing beliefs, practices and local traditions. Christian architecture encompasses a wide range of both secular and religious styles from the foundation of Christianity to the present day, influencing the design and construction of buildings and structures in Christian culture. From the birth of Christianity to the present, the most significant period of transformation for Christian architecture and design was the Gothic cathedral. Both theological and practical influences on church architecture have included pagan and secular buildings and those of other faiths. Buildings were at first adapted from those originally intended for other purposes but, with the rise of distinctively ecclesiastical architecture, church buildings came to influence secular ones which have often imitated religious architecture. In the 20th century, the use of new materials, such as concrete, as well as simpler styles has had its effect upon the design of churches and arguably the flow of influence has been reversed.
- L'architecture ecclésiastique se réfère à l'architecture de bâtiments religieux chrétiens. Elle a évolué en plus de deux mille ans de chrétienté, en partie par innovation et en partie par imitation d'autres styles architecturaux, mais aussi en répondant aux changements de croyances, aux pratiques et aux traditions locales. Les influences à la fois théologiques et pratiques sur l'architecture religieuse se sont inspirées des bâtiments païens ou séculiers ainsi que ceux des autres fois. Les bâtiments ont d'abord été adaptés de ceux originellement prévus pour d'autres programmes, puis, avec la montée d'une architecture ecclésiastique spécifique, les bâtiments chrétiens vinrent à influencer les bâtiments séculiers qui ont souvent emprunté à l'architecture religieuse. Au XX siècle l'utilisation de nouveaux matériaux comme le béton, ainsi que le goût pour des styles plus dépouillés eurent non seulement un impact sur la conception des églises, mais on peut aussi affirmer que l'architecture religieuse cesse alors d'être un modèle et se laisse influencer par d'autres types de constructions emblématiques.
