Stone Carving

The art of stone carving is an integral part of our architectural history . Both Bryn Athyn Cathedral and Glencairn evolved gradually , relying on creative input from carefully selected European stonemasons and artisans . This collaboration was exceptional : the various components of the buildings , such as the doors , windows , pillars and capitals were designed and built on-site and by hand . Before picking up your own hammer and chisel , you will have the opportunity to examine the intricate stonework on both the interior and exterior of Bryn Athyn Cathedral and Glencairn Museum .
