List of Masonic buildings

List of Masonic buildings identifies the notable buildings around the world that are currently used as meeting halls by Masonic lodges, Grand Lodges or other Masonic bodies. (For a list of those within the Untied States, see: List of Masonic buildings in the United States)

Contents

Many of the buildings on this list were purpose-built to house Masonic lodge meetings and ritual activities. In other cases, Masonic bodies converted existing landmark buildings to Masonic use. Also included are buildings constructed by the Freemasons as part of their charitable endeavors (such as hospitals and schools). This list is intended to include any building having some form of landmark status such as being listed on a heritage registers.

(For lists of notable buildings that historically were Masonic meeting halls, but have subsequently been re-purposed to non-Masonic use, see: List of former Masonic buildings and List of former Masonic buildings in the United States)
