Minor basilica
Minor basilica
(, in plural) is a title given to some
Roman Catholic
churches. According to
canon law
, no church building can be honoured with the title of
basilica
unless by
apostolic
grant or from immemorial custom. Presently, the authorising decree is granted by the
Pope
through the
Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments
.
