THE LODGE

Freemasonry encourages good men to become better men by promoting a life devoted to high ideals and community service.

Our Lodge

Welcome to the oldest constituted Masonic lodge in Canada and the British Commonwealth overseas, located in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Our governing body is the Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia and we are organized within Halifax District 1.

We are a culturally diverse group of men, ranging from tradespeople and military personnel to retired academics and businessmen, who come together to mentor and support each other in fraternal comradery. We use the practices and rituals of Freemasonry to help good men become better men and positive contributors to the well-being of our community.

Join us in our mission to make a positive impact on the world around us.
