حول

حقائق سريعة: Sunlight pours through surviving medieval glass, throwing jewel-toned patterns across cool stone floors and echoing off high vaulted ceilings. Visitors often notice a series of worn steps and carved tombstone edges under the choir, signs of centuries of quiet devotion and curious footsteps.

النقاط البارزة: Peer down into a dim chapel under the choir where the tomb of St Mungo rests, a simple carved sarcophagus that generations have left coins and rosary beads on. Close your eyes and the acoustics turn a single voice into a cathedral-sized resonance, a sound that once carried gospel and civic ceremony across medieval streets.
