Summary/Abstract: This text explores the subject of minimalist renovations in the sacred interiors of the Roman Catholic Church, based on a selection of representative examples, geographically and culturally diversified. Starting from the assumptions of the Second Vatican Council and the artistic and socio-cultural changes that could be observed as early as the 19th century, the article analyses the factors that led to an extreme formal reduction in church decoration. Apart from the obvious issue of interior architecture, a reflection is undertaken on the way in which art, which is both a cult and an aesthetic element, is displayed. Legal factors, liturgical and psychological aspects are also taken into account. To analyse the problem, realisations and projects from the circle of European architecture have been used.
