The Glasgow Cathedral, also called the High Kirk of Glasgow or St Mungo's Cathedral, was built before the Reformation from the late 12th century onwards serving as the seat of the Bishop and later the Archbishop of Glasgow. It is located right in the heart of Scotland's largest city and features beautiful stained glass windows. Beneath the main building is another church which contains the tomb of St Mungo. It is a remarkable example of Scottish Gothic architecture. It is also one of the few Scottish medieval churches to have survived the Reformation not unroofed.
