Housed in the former editorial offices of the Glasgow Herald, the Lighthouse building was the first commission for the great Mackintosh in 1893. It is now the home of Scotland's Centre for Architecture & Design, spread over five floors. The Mackintosh Centre is dedicated to the city's leading builder and his work, while the other levels are home to changing and temporary exhibitions. A lookout point at the top offers lovely views of Glasgow. Guided tours are available on Saturdays.

Suberbe vue de la ville
Le musée en lui meme n'est pas exceptionnel, mais il ne fut pas rater la Tour (malgré les longs escaliers) , qui permet d'avoir une vue à 360 sur la ville de Glasgow, un incontournable !

En plein centre de Glasgow , sur les traces des réalisations de Charles Mackintosh , ne pas hésiter à parcourir les étages de cette maison transformée un lieu d'exposition design et architecture. Depuis la terrasse , accessible par un ascenseur, très belle vue panoramique sur les toits de Glasgow, accés gratuit.
The Lighthouse is to be discovered as well for the building itself as for its collections.
Work of Charles disavows Mackintosh, The Lighthouse is today a museum devoted to the design. Very tribute with its architect!
