St Mungo’s Museum of Religious Life & Art : Attraction of Glasgow
St Mungo’s Museum is an audacious attempt to capture the world’s major religions in an artistic nutshell. The result is startlingly successful. There are three galleries, representing religion as art, religious life and, on the top floor, religion in Scotland.
In the main gallery Dali’s Christ of St John of the Cross hangs beside statues of the Buddha and Hindu deities. Outside, you’ll find Britain’s only Zen garden.
Hours: Mon-Thu, Sat 10:00am-5:00pm; Fri, Sun 11:00am-5:00pm
