  1. List of collegiate churches in Scotland

    Refimprove date March 2009 There are no functioning Collegiate church es in Scotland today. It is thought that the first Collegium of canons with its own chapel was formed in St. Andrews in the 13th century, and it is thought that by the Scottish Reformation Reformation there were more than 50 secular religious houses. The proscription of the Catholic faith in 1567 meant that these houses had to close. Although Scotland endured the Iconoclasm of the Reformation, there are still some handsome structures extant. Some Collegiate churches were converted into local parish Kirk s, whilst others have fallen to ruin, some a mixture of the two. As a response to the power of Christian monasticism Later medieval monastcism Medi val Monastiscm , the rulers of Scotland in common with many other Northern European states tried to control the power of the church by encouraging local magnates to commission secular houses of worship within their lands and often within their own fortalices. These churches were often considered as private fiefdoms within certain families as a means to ensure prayers for their souls and for the glory and immortality of their lines. Establishing previous monastic establishments as Collegia of Canon priest Canon s helped to temporalise authority over large areas of valuable land and increase the power of the crown.
