What to expect

The Lighthouse is Scotland's Centre for Design and Architecture, located in the heart of Glasgow. It is housed in the former Glasgow Herald building, which was designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The centre features a range of exhibitions and events focused on design and architecture, as well as a Mackintosh Interpretation Centre and a viewing platform with uninterrupted views of the city. The Lighthouse also has a design shop, a café, and multi-purpose spaces that can be hired for events. It is a great place to learn about Glasgow's architecture and design, and to enjoy the city's views
