House of Worship
Congregation's dedicated structure
A house of worship is a building where people gather for religious services—churches, mosques, synagogues, temples, and similar structures.
The phrase is deliberately inclusive, used when referring to sacred spaces across different faiths: The neighborhood has several houses of worship within walking distance.
It appears often in legal and interfaith contexts where naming a specific tradition would be too narrow.
