The Lighthouse

Glasgow is home to The Lighthouse, also known as the Glasgow Herald Building, a historic commercial building and museum. The Art Nouveau building, which Charles Rennie Mackintosh helped design, was originally built for the Glasgow Herald publishing house and was remodeled several times. Restored as a prestige project, it housed the National Centre for Architecture and Design as well as a museum exhibition on Mackintosh's work. Visitors could gain insight there into Scottish architectural history. The building is listed as an individual monument in the highest heritage category, Category A. After closing permanently in 2020, it was leased long-term in 2025 and now serves as a center for sustainability and climate technology.
