St Andrew's Cathedral, Roman Catholic cathedral in Glasgow, Scotland.
St Andrew's Cathedral displays Gothic Revival architecture with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and extensive use of brick throughout its construction.
The cathedral, completed in 1819, marked the return of Catholic worship to Glasgow after restrictions following the Scottish Reformation of 1560.
The cathedral maintains its function as the mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow, hosting regular services and religious ceremonies.
Regular masses occur throughout the week with multiple Sunday services, while reconciliation takes place six days per week at scheduled times.
During construction in 1816, workers had to rebuild sections repeatedly as opponents destroyed completed work during nighttime raids.
