About the fraternity
About the fraternity
A brief history.
Freemasonry traces its roots to the Middle Ages. From associations of stone masons who built cathedrals, castles, and monasteries, the fraternity emerged and later welcomed accepted members beyond the operative craft.
The Masonic fraternity has a long tradition of charitable service. Pentalpha supports relief, fellowship, and local civic life in and around Montgomery County.
"The internal, not the external, qualifications of a man are what Masonry regards."
