This Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities will support the development of an interactive map and searchable web-based database as part of the Shared Churches in Early Modern Europe research project. Funded under the Promotion of the Humanities Research program, the $496,948 award to the University of Arizona will allow researchers to investigate spatial arrangements made for sharing parish churches in Central Europe between 1500 and 1800. The project aims to reveal how diverse religious understandings could coexist in shared sacred spaces and how those spaces functioned to both unify and separate faith groups. Running from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2025, the database and map deliverables will provide new insights into the rise of exclusive denominational identities during this transformative period.
