St Andrew's Cathedral

St. Andrew’s Cathedral in Glasgow is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese. It was created in 1814 in the neo-Gothic style. In 2011, extensive reconstruction and modernization of the structure took place. Despite the internal changes in St. Andrew’s Cathedral, its Gothic appearance remained almost unchanged.

It stands on the north bank of the River Clyde in all its splendor. The facade of the building is decorated with two octagonal towers and a statue of the Apostle Andrew (the patron of Scotland), located in a niche above the main entrance. Around the perimeter of the building are small turrets with sharp spires. Wide lancet windows are trimmed with openwork threads. In the courtyard of the temple there is a spacious bell tower, which includes seven bells of interesting tubular shape.

The church hall is striking in its beauty, made in golden tones. Its interior is decorated with ancient paintings depicting saints and magnificent stained glass drawings. There is a new marble altar in the temple. All services and ceremonies here are accompanied by chants of the church choir and wonderful organ music.
