Proudly standing tall in the heart of Sydney between Market and Park Streets the New South Wales Masonic Club casts a striking silhouette against the skyline. At the time it was built in 1926-27 it was the tallest building in Sydney. The founding Masons who first conceived the idea of this Club could hardly have imagined the incredible journey they and their successors were about to embark upon….
On September 15th, 1893, the club was formally founded and launched as an active organisation under its constitution by a group of Masons who saw a need for a closer union among the fraternity. At the time it was known as the New South Wales Masonic Musical and Literary Club. At its inception it was decided that it should be a rallying point for all good Masons, that it should be a centre where all points of interest could be freely and fully discussed, where information on Masonic matters could always be gained, and where true fraternity could be cultivated.
