Saint Mungo, also known as Kentigern, was a sixth-century missionary and the first bishop of Glasgow. Born in Culross following a difficult childhood involving his mother Teneu, he was raised by Saint Serf. He spent much of his life evangelizing the Brittonic Kingdom of Strathclyde, establishing a church near the Molendinar Burn. Throughout his ministry, he traveled to Wales and Rome before eventually returning to Glasgow, where he served as a prominent religious leader and patron of the city.
