City centre mural trail

Glasgow street art regular Smug created this mural on a gable end on High Street. It depicts a modern-day St Mungo and references the story of The Bird That Never Flew. Fittingly, the nearby Glasgow Cathedral is the final resting place of Glasgow's patron saint.

Around the corner from the modern day St Mungo is St Enoch and Child, also by Smug. This tender and detailed mural shows a modern version of how the city began; St Thenue/Enoch cradling her beloved St Kentigern/Mungo. Find it at the corner of High Street and George Street.

On Mitchell Street, you'll find this colossal image depicting a girl with a magnifying glass. Catch it at the right angle and it looks as if she's plucking people off the street! Created by artist Smug, it's within walking distance of Glasgow Central Station.

Rogue One and Art Pistol strike again with this fantastic mural of a musician. You can find it tucked away in Sauchiehall Lane.
