St Mungo's Museum of Religious Life and Art

About this place

Museum exploring religion and culture located beside Glasgow Cathedral.

Set right beside Glasgow Cathedral, this museum explores religion and culture from around the world through art and artefacts spanning multiple faiths, aiming to explain rather than favour any single tradition. It's an unusual and thoughtful museum for a city of Glasgow's size, using genuinely striking objects - from a huge Salvador Dalí painting to religious artefacts from across the globe - to prompt discussion rather than simply display facts. It suits older children with an interest in different cultures and beliefs particularly well. Entry is free, and the museum is fully indoors and accessible.
