This Swedenborgian center is noted architecturally. Buildings in 14th century Gothic and 12th century Romanesque styles. Built by cooperative craft guilds in medieval way. Endowed by John Pitcairn.
This is located in the front of the cathedral near the road. I have visited the cathedral several times, leaning new stuff every time I go. You can find more information at (visit link)
If this style of building interest you, and you want to learn more, tours of the glencairn museum are also available. The website for the museum is (visit link)
There is another building I feel should be noted here too, it is
cairnwood, (visit link) I have never toured the third building though. It will be the next one I go through.
I am not connected in any way with this site, I just want to share a wonder in our own backyard.
