Building of this Masonic Temple began on the 21st March 1923. Located in Ellon, this Masonic Temple has served as the spiritual and ceremonial home of Lodge Ythan for over a century. The building welcomes you with a small entrance hall leading through to a library room then into the main Temple itself.
The fireplace, both functional and symbolic, stands as the heart of the building. It’s adorned with the names of past Right Worshipful Masters, offering a tangible link to generations of Freemasons who’ve shaped the lodge’s legacy.
The ante room, added after the original construction, complements the building’s layout and provides a quiet space for reflection or preparation.
The lodge is part of the Province of Aberdeenshire East, one of 15 daughter lodges under the Provincial Grand Lodge, and remains a vibrant hub of Masonic activity.
During Doors Open Days, visitors are welcomed into the entrance hall, library, and main temple, where Freemasons are on hand to share stories and answer questions. It’s a rare chance to step inside a space that’s usually reserved for ritual and fraternity.
