'''Shrine Worlds''' are [[Imperial]] worlds devoted to a [[Saint]] of the [[Imperium]] and are often named in their honour. These worlds are ruled directly by the [[Adeptus Ministorum]] and attract huge amounts of pilgrims from all over the Imperium. There are also the dark mirrors to these places of Imperial devotion - fallen worlds where the inhabitants offer up ceaseless prayer to the Dark Gods. These places of obscene sacrifices and bloody rites are not suffered continued existence for long.{{Fn|2}} Often the Shrine Worlds - are a places of eternal rest for holy men and women of the Imperium and the entire surface of this sacred planets given over to the hallowed crypts of sainted and great monolithic cathedra.{{Fn|4}}

Most shrine worlds usually fall into another category - for example, [[Hagia]] is an [[agri world]] while, [[Herodor]] is a [[Hive World]]. They have a strong relationship with the saint in question, such as being the world of his or her birth or martyrdom.{{cite this}}
