Let me show you the Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum. This art and local history museum in Stirling, Scotland, provides a look at the area's heritage. It was founded in 1874 at the bequest of artist Thomas Stuart Smith. Before it became the gallery you see today, the site was known as the Smith Institute. I've always found it a great spot to get your bearings in the city. Whether you are interested in the fine arts or the stories of the local people, there is plenty to see here. You can pick out a variety of exhibits that showcase the history of the region and the work of various artists.
The Church of the Holy Rude is the medieval parish church of Stirling, Scotland. It is the second oldest building in the city after Stirling Castle. While the church was founded in 1129 during the reign of David I, the earliest part of the current structure dates from the 15th century. Over time, the building expanded as the chancel and tower were added in the 16th century. The church is named after the Holy Rood, a relic of the True Cross on which Jesus was crucified. It is now recognized as a category A listed building. You can see the progression of the architecture from the medieval parish roots to the later additions of the tower and chancel that define its current shape.
