Glasgow is full of fascinating places to explore
GLASGOW UNIVERSITY HISTORIC TOUR
Founded in 1451, the University of Glasgow is the fourth-oldest university in the English-speaking world. Originally located on High Street in the city centre near Glasgow Cathedral, in 1870 it moved to Gilmorehill in the west end.
This iconic, stunning building is one of Glasgow’s most famous landmarks, but few people have seen inside. Victorian splendour awaits, with sumptuous marble and wood carvings and opulent murals. Free public tours are conducted twice per day, Monday to Friday, at 10.30am and 2.30pm with tickets available on a first come, first served basis – you cannot book in advance.
