Have you visited The Necropolis in Glasgow?
Whether you live in Glasgow or are coming to visit, we want to highlight the biggest, best and no-to-be-missed spots around the city.What is The Necropolis?
The main gates lie behind St Mungo’s Museum of Religious Life and Art, and is adjacent to Glasgow Cathedral.Though it may seem morbid to call a cemetery a top-class experience or a history hit, it cannot be helped in the case of Glasgow's Necropolis. The cemetery is also non-denominational. It has a Jewish section, as well as memorials to stillborn children, the Korean War and Glaswegian recipients of the Victoria Cross.
It took me around two-and-a-half hours to tour what felt like an inch of the cemetery and truthfully, I could have stayed all day.
