We are the
First Masonic District
of Massachusetts


From the District Deputy Grand Master

Welcome to the Historic First Masonic District of Massachusetts
The First Masonic District is home to nine distinguished lodges — a brotherhood woven through centuries of tradition, leadership, and service. Several of our lodges stand among the oldest in the nation, and their history lives vibrantly within our walls. Nestled in the heart of downtown Boston, every lodge in our district meets inside one of the most iconic Masonic structures in the world: the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts at 186 Tremont Street, a cornerstone of our Craft since 1899.
We invite you to explore our district, discover our timeless values, and experience the impact Freemasonry continues to have in the lives of our members and our communities. Whether you are a Brother seeking deeper engagement, a sojourning Mason traveling through, or a curious friend wishing to learn more, we welcome your interest and your fellowship.
I look forward to connecting with you on the level.
