Ramshorn Theatre, Category A listed theatre in Merchant City, Glasgow, Scotland
The Ramshorn Theatre occupies a Gothic Revival building at 98 Ingram Street, featuring stained glass windows depicting biblical narratives and stone architecture details.
Constructed in 1824 as St David's Parish Church, the structure was transformed into a performance venue in 1992 after its acquisition by the University of Strathclyde.
The theatre served as a performance space for student productions and touring companies, contributing to Glasgow's performing arts from 1992 to 2011.
Located near Buchanan Street Underground station, the former theatre now houses Scotland's National Centre for Languages and the Confucius Institute for Scotland's Schools.
The building stands as the only church in Scotland designed by architect Thomas Rickman, with an adjacent cemetery containing graves of notable Scottish merchants.
