Masonry entered this country early in our history. Benjamin Franklin, an active Mason, printed the first Masonic book published in the United States. George Washington and other American leaders were active Masons.

As Masons moved across the continent, they brought Masonry with them. The first recorded Masonic meeting in Colorado was held in the middle of the nineteenth century; the first Rocky Mountain News contained a notice of a Masonic meeting. The Colorado Grand Lodge was formed in 1861.

Colorado Springs Lodge #76 was established in 1889 and continues to proudly make good men better. We meet at the Masonic Center 1150 Panorama Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80904 every second and fourth Tuesday of every month at 7: 30 pm but come earlier to meet our brothers and have them answer your questions.
