Title

Glasgow City Free Church (St. Vincent Street Church)

Description

See inside one of Glasgow�s most stunning pieces of architecture, also considered one of the World Monument Fund's 100 most endangered buildings. Pause for a peaceful moment in the beautiful interior packed full of �Greek� Thomson character.

Alexander "Greek" Thomson's work has achieved international acclaim, and the St Vincent Street church has been recognised as one of the most important 19th-century church buildings in the UK. We look forward to welcoming you to view the spectacular main sanctuary, and to enjoy the architect's use of light and wide range of motifs and designs.

There is a living and active congregation in the building. You are also welcome to attend any of our Sunday morning church services which start at 11am.
