Our Story

Triangle Lodge has been a landmark in the greater Portland community since 1762. We exist to help men become a better version of themselves, support our community, and work toward the betterment of mankind.

In 1762, we were chartered as Falmouth Lodge - before Portland was a city, Maine was a State, or the United States... existed. What we know now as Portland was all Falmouth, in the province of Massachusetts Bay.

In 1769 we opened our Lodge for the first time. We met in taverns and private homes.

In 1796 we changed our name to Portland Lodge, and joined the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. An act affixed to our charter by Paul Revere.

In 1806 and 1855, two more Lodges sprouted in Portland: Ancient Land Mark Lodge and Atlantic Lodge.

In 1820, we joined the Grand Lodge of Maine when Maine became a state.

In 1911, we moved into our new home at the Portland Masonic Temple.

In 1981, the three lodges above merged to form Triangle Lodge No. 1.

Today, we stand as one of the oldest Lodges in America. Our mission is rooted in the principles of brotherly love, relief, and truth. Triangle Lodge is one of the fastest growing Lodges in Maine, and the door is always open to those who knock.

If you wish to join the Lodge, and become a Mason... just ask.
