The Museum and Library of the Grand Lodge of
Scotland
The Museum and Library at
Freemasons’ Hall in Edinburgh,
Scotland, is one of
the hidden gems of the Masonic world. It contains priceless
and irreplaceable Masonic documents from the 16th
century as well as a huge range of other Masonic material
including jewels, rare books, ceramics, glassware, aprons
etc. So rich is the archive that the international Masonic
Exhibition held at the Fine
Arts Museum,
Tours,
France, during 2002, found it difficult to decide on the
most important artefacts to display.
This lecture, supported by
illustrative material (either as handouts or as computer
images – laptop and data projector required), is a ‘tour’ of
the most 'important' artifacts, for eaxample the Oldest
Lodge Records in the World being those of the Lodge of
Aitcheson's Haven which commence on 9th January 1599.
