We came to view the house on Saturday 1st February and had been looking forward to it as it held childhood memories. On entering the building there was a man and woman sitting at a table chatting very loudly. We waited to be greeted and then waited some more. We were completely ignored by both members of staff who were too busy chatting to each other. We watched as they ignored further visitors while carrying on their conversation. The woman in particular was extremely loud as we were trying to watch the video in the next room. She did however, after a considerable amount of time, finally manage to greet two guests and explain some facts about the house. To say that this is not a good introduction to the building would be an understatement. Once we had finished looking around the house we were again ignored by the woman eve though we said goodbye to her directly. In a city were we are known for our friendliness and great humour, what a disappointment to come across someone so unfriendly.

Really interesting historical building that has been sympathetically renovated. Knowledgeable guides and interesting artwork. Great views of the necropolis from the top floor.

Well worth a visit. The restoration has been done to a high standard, love the stone walls and wooden beams. Very interesting place, with loads of historical facts and the staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. Nice garden outside with gargoyles all around.

Entry is free. This is worth it to see if you are into architecture or history. Well worth any donation.

C'est bien restauré mais c'est une maison médiévale assez vide en dehors de quelques tables et chaises (plus des tableaux et des panneaux explicatifs).
Si vous avez du temps et que vous passez par là pour aller voir notamment la cathédrale vous pouvez y passer une tête, mais je ne pense pas que ce soit un immanquable.

An interesting house that is one of Glasgow's oldest medieval buildings. Now a museum. The physick herbal garden - and cloisters outside - were pleasant. I'm glad I went - free entry, worth 4 stars in my opinion. Laminated information sheets in several languages are provided. Good information boards beside the exhibits. Exhibits included beautifully carved wooden furniture donated by William Burrell - of the world-famous Burrell collection. I particularly liked the photos and original oil paintings by Tom McGoran on display, they depict mid 20th century Glasgow life as I remember it - namely dirty and at times polluted - but vibrant.

Definitely pop in here if you get the chance! The staff are knowledgeable, the house itself has been restored to perfection and you can see the history everywhere. The gardens were gorgeous and there are lots of little signs around to explain what you’re looking at. Highly recommend!

Had a great visit. Place looks great after its "refurb". Tour guide Ian was very informative and we all learned loads about the building : its history and how it has been altered recently. Scariest moment is the creepy man upstairs 😆 lovely garden too. We're already looking forward to seeing it get back to its former glory.

El Señorío de Provand es una casa museo histórica medieval ubicada en la parte superior de Castle Street, a la vista de la Catedral de Glasgow y la Enfermería Real de Glasgow, y al lado del Museo de Arte y Vida Religiosa de St Mungo.
Historia
Provand's Lordship fue construido como parte del St Nicholas's Hospital por Andrew Muirhead, obispo de Glasgow en 1471. Una extensión occidental, diseñada por William Bryson, se completó en 1670.
A principios del siglo XIX, la casa estaba ocupada por un canónigo apoyado por los ingresos del Señor de Prebend (o "Provand") de Barlanark. Más tarde ese siglo fue adquirido por la familia Morton que lo utilizó como tienda de dulces. Después de una generosa donación de Sir William Burrell, en forma de efectivo, así como una colección de muebles escoceses del siglo XVII a fines de la década de 1920, la casa fue comprada por Provand's Lordship Society, especialmente formada, cuyo objetivo era protegerla. En 1978, el edificio fue adquirido por la ciudad de Glasgow, que lo restauró. Fue reabierto al público en 1983 y, tras más trabajos de restauración que duraron dos años, volvió a abrir en 2000.

Visite está casa antes de la pandemia. Ahora está cerrada desde el COVID.
Es la casa más antigua de Glasgow. Ojalá pronto puedan volver a abrirla al público. Por dentro está muy bien
