Bryn Athyn Historic District
Bryn Athyn Historic District, Religious architectural complex in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, United States.
The Bryn Athyn Historic District spans 37 acres and contains three family mansions along with a cathedral featuring Gothic Revival architecture elements.
John Pitcairn Jr established this religious community in the 1880s after acquiring 500 acres of land to create a center for The New Church.
The district includes Glencairn Museum, which houses 8,000 artifacts spanning religious history through medieval art, mosaics, and stone sculptures.
Visitors can access the district through Huntington Pike, with guided tours available for Cairnwood Estate, Glencairn Museum, and Bryn Athyn Cathedral.
Each door in the Bryn Athyn Cathedral features different designs, reflecting the medieval construction principle where no two elements are identical.
