Hutchesons' Hall |

|
One of the most elegant buildings in Glasgow's city centre, Hutchesons' Hall was built in 1802 - 5 to a design by David Hamilton. It incorporates on its frontage the statues, from an earlier building of 1641, of the founders of Hutchesons' Hospital, George and Thomas Hutcheson.
A major reconstruction in 1876 by John Baird heightened the Hall and provided an impressive staircase. The interior is hung with portraits of Glasgow worthies.
A permanent multi-media exhibition, 'Glasgow Style', includes film and a gallery selling work by young Glasgow designers.
