A warm welcome to you all to the website of the Grand Lodge of British Freemasonry in Germany. We are an extremely unique organisation that has no political or religious afiliations and are made up of members of all ages, races, religions, cultures, and backgrounds.

We meet in lodges throughout Germany, where we continue with traditions that encourage us to be tolerant, respectful and to fulfil our community and charitable responsibilities. We hope to attract men from all walks of life and backgrounds, inspiring them to develop and challenge themselves, to enable them to aspire to their full potential in their private and public lives. 

Freemasonry can be seen as a way of personal growth and self improvement developed from following lessons like integrity, charity and respect learnt from within the lodge. It provides an opportunity to become involved in our local communities and supporting charitable causes. It also provides a sense of belonging and gives the opportunity to form true and lasting friendships.

If you would like to know more, please feel free to get in touch, via the website, and ask any questions you may have. I would encourage you to make that first step.

The GLBFG's Commitment to Charitable Giving

Our charitable activities are driven by the individual efforts of our 19 lodges spread across the country.
