Bavaria Lodge No. 935 is an international English speaking Masonic Lodge located in Munich, Germany.
Our members come from all walks of life and include expatriates from Croatia, Czechoslovakia, England, France, Italy, Romania, Senegal, Turkey and the USA, as well as English speaking Germans. We also have a large component of brethren stateside who continue to support us.
We meet on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of each month (except July and August) at 19:30 hrs in the lodge rooms. Our annual installation of officers takes place in September.
Although Bavaria Lodge No.935 was chartered in 1975, it is the amalgamation of several former military lodges. Through our predecessor lodges, we have been taking good men and making them better for over half a century.
