Doors Open Day: St Columbkille’s Church
The Church building will be open from 11am to 3pm with guided tours taking place at 11.15am, 12.15, 13.15 and 14.15.
Any member of the public is welcome to visit this fine example of a Gillespie, Kidd and Coia designed church. Behind its austere towering red brick façade, is a bright and airy Italianate Basilica style church, with clean proportions and simple elegant geometry.
The church is an active place of worship, therefore we would ask visitors to be mindful of this when visiting the building.
Join us for an informative 45-minute guided tour of this grade A-listed Catholic church, prominently positioned on Rutherglen’s Main Street. Discover fascinating stories, beautiful architecture, and hidden gems inside this early example of modern church architecture opened in 1940. This is an in-person event, so come ready to explore up close and ask all the questions you want!
