Title

Fyvie Parish Church, Fyvie

Description

Fyvie Church was built in the early 19th century, and stands on an early Christian site evidenced partially by the four Pictish stones visible in the outer east gable. The church is also home to a magnificent stained-glass window designed by Tiffany of New York. The window was brought to Fyvie in 1901 and installed in memory of Percy Forbes-Leith, who was killed in the Boer War, and is a remarkable and unexpected find. There is also an exceptional decoratively carved timber laird’s loft.

Church members will be on hand to provide any further information required, and an information booklets will also be available to take home for a small donation. The graveyard is also worth a visit.
