Germania Lodge #160, A.F.& A.M.

FOUNDED:   13 May 1872

PURPOSE:  To bring together Master Masons wishing to do the work of the Lodge in their native German language.

OFFICERS:

The German-speaking Masonic Lodge was given its charter by the Grand Lodge of A.F. & A.M. on 13 May 1872.  Its purpose, then as now, is to bring together Master Masons interested in carrying on the work of the Lodge in the German language. The German ritual was approved by the Grand Master Thomas J. Shryock on 23 April 1894.  Today it is the only German-speaking Lodge in the jurisdiction of Maryland.

Germania’s annual Oktoberfest at the Grand Lodge  is a fun evening enjoyed by all who attend.

Celebrating their 150th anniversary this year, don’t miss Germania Lodge’s Gala on May 14th!
