I have come across old churches like that but didn't know there was a
proper name for them. I assume it happened because the church was built
in two or more phases and they got the alignment slightly wrong when
extending, or there was some reason why they couldn't extend along the
proper alignment.>>>>>
This is quite plausible. There is also the pious legend that the alignment
was purposely off to symbolize Christ's nodded head on the cross.
