Abstract
The history of the development of human civilization shows us how the use of daylight could influence the development of world architecture. In the article, the author tried to show how in different epochs daylighting influenced not only civil architecture, but also how light becomes an important sacred component of cult architecture, starting from Ancient Egypt and ending with Christian and Islamic architecture. The article examines the influence of daylight on architecture throughout history, determines the relationship of philosophical aspects, religion and worldview views in certain historical periods and architectural techniques using daylighting.
