hallowedness
State of consecration
Hallowedness is the quality of being sacred, holy, or revered.
The word appears almost exclusively in religious or highly formal contexts, describing the sanctified nature of places, traditions, or concepts: the hallowedness of the church grounds, the hallowedness of marriage vows.
It's the noun form of hallowed, itself best known from "hallowed be thy name" in the Lord's Prayer.
