House-shaped shrine (or church or tomb-shaped shrines) are early medieval portable metal reliquary formed in the shape of the roof of a rectangular building. They originate from both Ireland and Scotland and mostly date from the 8th or 9th centuries. Typical example consist of a wooden core covered with silver and copper alloy plates, and were built to hold relics of saints or martyrs from the early Church era; a number held corporeal remains when found in the modern period, presumably they were parts of the saint's body. Others, including the Breac Maodhóg, held manuscripts associated with the commemorated saint. Like many Insular shrines, they were heavily reworked and embellished in the centuries following their initial construction, often with metal adornments or figures influenced by rdf:langString

rdf:langString Hausförmige Schreine (englisch House-shaped shrine) sind kleine tragbare, frühmittelalterliche Reliquienbehältnisse aus Holz und Metall in Form quaderförmiger Häuser mit Giebeldach. Typisch ist ein mit Platten aus Silber- und Kupferlegierungen bedeckter Holzkasten. Sie stammen meist aus dem 8. oder 9. Jahrhundert und wurden in England, Italien, Irland, Norwegen, Schottland und Wales gefunden. Die Schreinidee scheint ihren Ausgangspunkt in Irland zu haben. In Schottland und im angelsächsischen England, insbesondere in Northumbria, das Verbindungen zu Irland hatte, wurden sie relativ schnell eingegliedert. Der Schrein verbreitete sich im 10. und 11. Jahrhundert nach den Wikingereinfällen in Irland auch nach Norwegen. Einige hausförmige Schreine enthielten die Überreste von Körpern. Der Schrein des Heiligen Máedóg(Breac Maodhóg) aus dem 11. Jahrhundert barg mit dem Heiligen in Verbindung stehende Manuskripte. Viele Schreine wurden Jahrhunderte nach ihrer Entstehung stark überarbeitet und dabei oft mit zeitgenössischen, romanisch beeinflussten, kontinentalen Skulpturen versehen. Zu den hausförmigen Schreinen gehören auch glocken- (St Patrick's Bell Shrine) und zeltförmige Exemplare (St.-Manchán-Schrein). Erhaltene irische Exemplare sind der auf das späte 7. bis frühe 8. Jahrhundert datierte, als beispielhaft für die Gruppe angesehene Emly-Schrein, die Lough-Erne-Schreine, der Bologna-Schrein (alle 9. Jahrhundert), der (11. Jahrhundert) und der St.-Manchán-Schrein (12. Jahrhundert). Der hausförmige Schrein von Monymusk befindet sich in Schottland, der Schrein von St. Gwenfrewi in Gwytherin in Wales. Drei intakte Exemplare wurden in Norwegen gefunden (der „Kopenhagener“ oder „Ranvaiks Sarg“ und die Melhus- und Setnes-Schreine).
rdf:langString House-shaped shrine (or church or tomb-shaped shrines) are early medieval portable metal reliquary formed in the shape of the roof of a rectangular building.

Others, including the Breac Maodhóg, held manuscripts associated with the commemorated saint. Like many Insular shrines, they were heavily reworked and embellished in the centuries following their initial construction, often with metal adornments or figures influenced by Romanesque sculpture. The format appears to have originated in Ireland, and was adapted in Scotland and Anglo-Saxon England, particularly Northumbria which had close artistic ties with Ireland. The format draws from Ancient Roman and contemporary continental influences, including for later examples, French Romanesque architecture. The type spread to Scandinavia during the 10th and 11th centuries during cultural exchanges following the —disastrous for Ireland— Viking invasion of Ireland. According to Fintan O'Toole "there [was not a] single moment of conversion, and there was probably a considerable overlap between those [vikings] who had gone native and those who kept to the old religion. Conversion, as the historian Donnchadh Ó Corráin put it, "must have come gradually, as an effect of assimilation." Surviving Irish examples include the Emly shrine (found in County Limerick, dated to the late 7th–early 8th century, often considered the exemplary of the series), the two Lough Erne Shrines (9th century), Bologna Shrine (9th century), the Breac Maodhóg (11th century) and Saint Manchan's Shrine (12th century). Three fully intact examples have been found in Norway (the 'Copenhagen' or 'Ranvaik's Casket'), Melhus and Setnes shrines), one is in Scotland (the Monymusk Reliquary), one is in Wales (the shrine of St. Gwenfrewi at Gwytherin), and two are in Italy.
