A HISTORIC Scottish church has announced a new visitor charge in order to secure its financial future.
The Church of the Holy Rude, nestled in the shadow of Stirling Castle, is stepped in more than 900 years of history and is aiming to make itself a must-visit tourist attraction with a new exhibition.
Chair of Stirling District Tourism David Black said: “Our groundbreaking partnership with the Church of the Holy Rude promises to establish a lasting legacy of exceptional visitor experiences, while contributing to the Church’s long-term sustainability and preserving its identity as an iconic place of worship for generations to come.
“We hope it will act as a catalyst to attract visitors to the old town, where tales from the past await around every corner.” “It is our hope that it will raise the profile of the church, not only as an important visitor attraction, but also as a living place of worship to continue supporting the mission of the Kirk to Stirling and the wider world.”
Tickets for the exhibition will be priced at £5 for adult and £4 for concessions while those under five will go free.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
