Glasgow Requiem is a 5-year creative programme spanning public ceremony, community archaeology, horticultural design, sound works, live performance, writing and imaginative responses to Glasgow’s mediaeval roots, pre-industrial history and founding mythologies.

Glasgow Requiem: The Well

The Well is the latest programme as part of Glasgow Requiem. The ancient well, hidden for centuries in the Crypt of Glasgow Cathedral, will be reawakened this autumn as Glasgow's Wellspring, through a major new project by Aproxima.

The Well will uncover and reinterpret the sacred site, once central to Glasgow’s foundation story, through archaeology, contemporary art, and music - marking the city’s 850th anniversary in 2025.
