Gartnavel Royal Hospital, Category A listed mental health hospital in Glasgow, United Kingdom
The Gartnavel Royal Hospital stands at 1055 Great Western Road, featuring individual patient rooms with modern healthcare facilities and specialized treatment departments.
Originally established as the Glasgow Lunatic Asylum in 1814, the facility received a royal charter in 1824 and moved to its current Gothic Revival building in 1843.
The hospital published the Gartnavel Minstrel in 1845, marking the first publication written and edited by mental health patients in a medical institution.
The facility includes multiple specialized wards such as McNair House, Henderson House, and Cuthbertson House, providing care for various mental health conditions.
A modernization project completed in 2007 transformed the hospital with 117 individual rooms, adding a community cafe and family areas for patients and visitors.
