Park information

The Southern Necropolis is hallowed ground which contains the remains of around 250,000 people and as such should be treated respectfully.

This reflects a time when Glasgow was ‘the second city of the empire’ and evokes the days when this great merchant City rivalled London with the wealth generated by its residents.

Walking tours of the Southern Necropolis are organised by the Friends of Southern Necropolis.
