Abstract
After the definition of Religion as a subsystem of Culture, the author identifies the area of intersection between Christianity and Religion. He then reflects on Christian heritage as a Language and on the difficulty of contemporary culture, precisely as religiously disinherited, to fully enjoy its meanings, for the lack of the code. It concludes with the enjoyment of a church's facade (the church of the Holly Cross-Braga), specifically as religious heritage.
