Pagan
Altars In Christian Churches ?
Churches were frequently built over ancient, sacred Pagan sites. The Christian altar were
placed on the East side of the church, however, a Pagan altar was sometimes included and
was placed by the North door. Churches in as late as the 11th century had a Pagan altar.
These North doors of most churches were walled over from the 1300's onward as Witches were
less tolerated. |
