Glencairn, built between 1928 and 1939 in Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania, was once the home of Raymond and Mildred (Glenn) Pitcairn and their children. The building now serves as a not-for-profit museum of religious art and history. The Glencairn Collection includes art and artifacts from the ancient Near East, Asia, Egypt, ancient Greece and Rome, Indigenous America, medieval Europe, and more. The mission of Glencairn Museum is to create an intentional space that invites visitors to encounter religious art and artifacts as expressions of spiritual beliefs and practices.
