St Aloysius
St Aloysius Church is a Roman Catholic parish church in the Garnethill area of Glasgow,it was designed by Charles Jean Ménart (1876 – 7 April 1956) was a Belgian architect who worked in Scotland in the early 20th century and specialised in designing Roman Catholic churches in the Baroque Revival style.
The church was unique amongst the Catholic churches of the time in Glasgow in that it had a tower and is modelled on Namur Cathedral in Belgium and the Gesu in Rome.
The two bells in the church tower were installed in 1910. They were originally part of a set of 10 bells that were placed in St Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh in 1865. In 1890, St Giles' Cathedral sold the set to St Mary's Cathedral in Edinburgh for £20. At the time, St Mary's Cathedral was trying to raise money to build a tower to house the bells. In 1910, after the fundraising was unsuccessful, the set of bells were divided up and given to other churches, two of which went to St Aloysius church
