MASONIC TOURS
The guided walks designed by the museum allow visitors to discover the often avant-garde role played by Freemasons in the political, economic, social and cultural life of the city and the Brussels-Capital Region.
The Belgian Museum of Freemasonry corresponds to a desire for openness on the part of an association known for its discretion.
It seeks, through thematic and didactic showcases, and with a view to providing information and encouraging reflection, to make the Masonic approach understandable to all. The Museum is located in a neoclassical building (Hôtel Dewez) and displays items such as decorations, jewellery, crockery and books from the 18th century to the present day, which are witnesses and signs of memory illustrating the historical development, functioning, ideas and current structures of Freemasonry.
