In 1999 The Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society became owner and long-term custodian of the Mackintosh Church at Queens Cross. The church was refurbished in 2005/2006 and is the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society’s International headquarters.
Simplistic in design the highlights of the interior include magnificent stained glass and exceptional relief carving on wood and stonework where light and space are used to dramatic effect. The windows are Gothic in design while the interior has an Art Nouveau influence as seen in the detailing of the oak pulpit.
