Dr. David Livingstone



  • This commemoration of famous medical missionary David Livingstone was originally built at the west side of George Square. The sculpture itself includes Livingstone surrounded by a palm tree, various discarded leg-irons, and pictorial reliefs of grateful 'natives.'
  • The sculpture was relocated to Cathedral Square facing Provand's Lordship in 1960.
  • In 1990 it was moved only a few meters to the north to its current location because of the division of a processional route to the cathedral.
