About Us
We are a small friendly Lodge meeting in Birmingham city centre for over one hundred years. We enjoy our Freemasonry and welcome visitors and new members with open arms.
The ethos of our Lodge is to look after all our members and their families whilst encouraging and mentoring newer members. We realise that friendship and our newer members are the life blood of our Lodge.
The Lodge of Loyalty has an interesting and varied history. After the horror and carnage of the 1914 to 1918 war, the desire for peace and good fellowship among mankind in general created a demand for membership into Freemasonry which had not been experienced prior to those days. Certain eminent members of the Lodge of Israel No. 1474, seeing their waiting list increasing, and realising they could not admit new members for seven to ten years, signed a Petition to Grand Lodge for the formation of a Daughter Lodge, to be called the Lodge of Loyalty.
What visitors say about us
"I have been quite a regular visitor to the Lodge of Loyalty and have also thoroughly enjoyed working with the Lodge team on membership development. A visitor or new member will always find this Lodge to be an uplifting experience with bright characters, diverse membership and a long and fascinating history to be a part of. The Lodge has an inclusive approach to the work of the Lodge in which less experienced Brethren are encouraged and carefully mentored so that they can quickly take an active part in a way they are comfortable with and enjoy the personal satisfaction that this brings. The Lodge has also adapted to better fit with modern life adopting a later opening time to allow people to get there from work and the vibrant festive board is generally completed by ten o'clock which is a blessing for those of us with early starts!"
