Old Saint Paul's Church

Over many years, the Jacobite church of Old Saint Paul’s has accumulated an exceptionally rich collection of church vestments, hangings and linens. This two day exhibition offers Edinburgh’s residents and visitors the opportunity to see the ways in which beautiful cloth, intricate embroidery and superb needlework can bring a distinctive artistic dimension to Christian faith in the practice of worship. Expert guides will be on hand to explain the symbolism skillfully embodied in fabric, and the religious ceremonies in which these magnificent items are regularly used.
