Glasgow Cathedral

The beautiful Glasgow Cathedral is one of the few Scottish medieval churches to have survived the 1560 Reformation without suffering any significant damage. The cathedral's origins date back to as early as 550 AD, when the tiny - at the time - wood church was central to a forming religious community.

Do & See

Glasgow has a wide selection of museums and galleries, many of which are free of charge to enter. In a way, the city itself is an open-air museum for architecture with a special focus on the works of the Scottish architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh. To get a good view of the city from above, climb one of the many hills Glasgow was built upon: some of the best bird's-eye views uncover from the Necropolis.
