Masonic Centre

Completed in 1927, the Masonic Centre building is the headquarters of Freemasonry in South Australia.

The main entrance on North Terrace is accentuated by four great ionic columns on the exterior of the building and approached by a flight of granite steps. The building comprises six levels, accommodating offices and meeting rooms, three lodge rooms, kitchens, reception rooms and banqueting rooms, a large hall at the rear (the Great Hall), the Masonic Museum and the Masonic Library.

Tours are conducted by the Freemasons and include a brief introduction to Freemasonry, followed by an inspection of the heritage listed building (including lodge rooms). The tour also includes portions of the collection of the Masonic Museum which contains many items of historical interest.

Various parts of the building are available to hire for private functions.

Public tours are conducted at 2pm and advance bookings required for group bookings.
