I was thinking of the architectural structure type, and including / 
architecture/structure and /architecture/building in the place of  
worship type.  Having said that, if there's a place of worship that's  
not a structure or building (Stonehenge also comes to mind, as a non- 
building structure, or I suppose various natural locations which are  
neither) then you could simply remove the structure and/or building  
types on the specific case.  I would imagine that > 99% of named  
places of worship are buildings.
