This is not true. If a settlement remains long enough in my possession, the culture penalty becomes 0, regardless of remaining alien buildings. I always keep execution places, taverns and odeons, even if playing roman.

Law and happiness bonus in Carthage dropped 10 points each upon destruction of the temple, proving that I did profit from the temple. I had no culture penalty remaining before I destroyed the temple.
