Production Cost: 300

What it Does: Must be built in your Holy City. 3 free Missionaries appear. Also gives +5 Faith per turn.

Strategies
This building's usefulness depends on how well you will make use of Missionaries and the Civs around you. If there are City-State quests to get your Religion and Cities of your own that are not yet converted, absolutely push for this over the Great Mosque of Djenne to get the instant ability to spread your religion.

I recommend you avoid spreading directly inside opposing Civs' territories, but rather build a chain of Cities and loop around the Civ while also using Trade Routes to spread Pressure in key areas. Form a plan and your religious pressure will continue to be exerted in the right places without you directly causing a diplomatic hit by using the Missionaries in their lands. If a Civ doesn't have a Religion, get open borders with them and spread your Religion freely to them - they'll actually like it and help you to spread it further!
