St. Giles' Cathedral

by Lucie Dumont on Oct 22, 2025
St. Giles' Cathedral

St Giles’ Cathedral sits proudly on the Royal Mile, all gothic spires and dramatic stonework. It’s hard to miss. Inside, it’s surprisingly peaceful—stained glass, vaulted ceilings, that soft hush you get in old churches. There’s history everywhere: John Knox preached here, and the Thistle Chapel is stunning in a quietly over-the-top way. Even if you’re not into churches, it’s worth a peek. Sometimes there's music playing. And the light through the windows? Magical.

圣吉尔斯大教堂雄踞皇家大道,哥特式尖顶与气势恢宏的石砌建筑令人过目难忘。步入内部,意外地宁静祥和——彩色玻璃窗、拱形穹顶,还有古老教堂特有的轻柔静谧。历史气息无处不在:约翰·诺克斯曾在此布道,蓟花礼拜堂以低调奢华的姿态令人惊叹。即便对教堂不感兴趣,也值得一探究竟。有时还能遇见现场音乐演奏。而透过彩窗洒下的光线?堪称魔幻。

Tha Cathair-eaglais Naomh Giles na suidhe gu pròiseil air a’ Mhìle Rìoghail, uile le spìcean Gotach agus obair-chloiche dràmatach. Tha e duilich a chall. A-staigh, tha e iongantach sìtheil—glainne dhathte, mullaichean boghtach, an t-sàmhchair bhog sin a gheibh thu ann an seann eaglaisean. Tha eachdraidh anns a h-uile àite: shearmonaich Iain Knox an seo, agus tha Caibeal an Fhoghair iongantach ann an dòigh shàmhach thar-mhullach. Fiù mura h-eil thu dèidheil air eaglaisean, is fhiach sùil a thoirt oirre. Aig amannan bidh ceòl a’ cluich. Agus an solas tron na h-uinneagan? Draoidheil.

La cathédrale Saint-Gilles se dresse fièrement sur le Royal Mile, avec ses flèches gothiques et ses pierres sculptées spectaculaires. Elle est difficile à manquer. À l'intérieur, elle est étonnamment paisible, avec ses vitraux, ses plafonds voûtés et ce silence feutré que l'on retrouve dans les vieilles églises. L'histoire est omniprésente : John Knox y a prêché, et la chapelle Thistle est magnifique, d'une manière discrètement extravagante. Même si vous n'êtes pas amateur d'églises, elle vaut le détour. Il y a parfois de la musique. Et la lumière qui traverse les vitraux ? Magique.

La catedral de St Giles se alza orgullosa en la Royal Mile, con sus agujas góticas y su espectacular mampostería. Es difícil pasarla por alto. En su interior, sorprende su tranquilidad: vidrieras, techos abovedados, ese suave silencio que se respira en las iglesias antiguas. La historia está presente en cada rincón: John Knox predicó aquí, y la capilla Thistle es impresionante, con una sobriedad exagerada. Aunque no te gusten las iglesias, merece la pena echarle un vistazo. A veces hay música. ¿Y la luz que entra por las ventanas? Mágica.
