St Mungo's Church, Glasgow

St Mungo's Church is a Roman Catholic Parish Church in the Townhead area of Glasgow, Scotland. It was built in 1841, with later work done on the church in 1877, and designed by George Goldie. It is situated on the corner of Parson Street and Glebe Street, east of St Mungo's Catholic Primary School and west of the Springburn Road. It was founded by the Passionists, is a Gothic Revival church and is a category B listed building. Aside from Glasgow Cathedral, it is one of only two churches in Townhead that survived the slum clearances of the 1950s and 1960s, the other being the Barony Church on nearby Castle Street, which is now an events space for the University of Strathclyde.

History
The church was first built in 1841. The architect was George Goldie. He built the church in the Italian Gothic architectural style. Nine years later, the church became the centre of a parish. In 1865, the Passionists arrived in Scotland. They came from Ireland and began to minister to the parish. From St Mungo's Church, the Passionists went out and ministered to Catholics in other parts of Scotland, such as St Joseph's Church in Helensburgh in 1867. In 1877, the church was altered, again to the designs of George Goldie.

In 1899, the parish of St Stephen's Church in Sighthill became part of the same parish as St Mungo's and the Passionists minister to both churches.

Next to the church, to the east, is St Mungo's Retreat. In addition, to the north is the parish hall that acts as a day centre.
