Freemasonry in Scotland

Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest and largest non-religious, non-political, fraternal and charitable organisations. Its roots lie in the traditions and ceremonies of the medieval stonemasons who built our cathedrals and castles. Some rituals are still celebrated today.

Values
Freemasonry has always been about making good men better. Individuals aim to shape their lives round five core principles.

Integrity: We say what we mean and we keep our promises.

Kindness: Although our families come first, we believe in playing a key role in our communities and give time and money to charitable ventures.

Honesty: We pride ourselves on openness, about what being a Freemason means for us.

Fairness: We treat everyone as equal – we listen to others, explore any differences and look for common ground.

Tolerance: We respect the opinions of others and behave with understanding towards them.

Is Freemasonry for me?
Freemasonry means different things to each individual – making new friends, contributing to society, celebrating a long tradition, experiencing personal growth, taking up a hobby, having fun.

Can I join?
Membership of the Craft in Scotland is open to respectable men who believe in their personal Supreme Being. Applicants should have attained the age of 21 years (with an exception in favour of the son of a Master Mason who can be admitted on attaining the age of 18 years). 

How do I join?
If you are interested in joining us and know someone from our Lodge, you should speak to him regarding an application for Initiation. If you do not know anyone who is a member of our Order then please get in touch and we will be happy to meet you and discuss your application. Please use the contact tab to send us your enquiry and we look forward to speaking with you!
