Welcome to The Harvard Lodge

Thank you for visting. We have established this website to share our Lodge with fellow Freemasons, as well as those who are simply curious.


The Harvard Lodge A.F. & A.M. was instituted on May 18th 1922,as the first Academic Masonic Lodge in the United States. The Lodge was founded primarily through the efforts of both Roscoe Pound, Dean of Harvard Law School; and Kirsopp Lake a Professor of the Divinity School. The formation of the Lodge was the result of several University based Masonic organizations coming together to form a distinct and unique Masonic Lodge. These include The Harvard Masonic Club, The Harvard Square and Compass Club, and the Harvard Chapter of the Acacia Fraternity. Learn more ยป
