Logenhaus Flensburg, Flensburg
Facts and practical information
The Flensburg Lodge House is located on the Museumsberg in Flensburg at Nordergraben 23. Today, the cultural monument serves the Freemasonry of Flensburg.
It was built in the years 1902 to 1903. It was commissioned by the Masonic lodge "Wilhelm zur nordischen Treue". The plans were made by the lodge brother Magnus Schlichting from Neumünster. Among the founders was in particular the shipowner Heinrich Schuldt. The laying of the foundation stone was on June 24, 1902, St. John's Day, which plays a role in Freemasonry. In the years before, the Flensburg lodges had met in the neighboring garden inn "Bellevue". Shortly thereafter, the Flensburg Guttempler lodge was also established in the Schloßstraße, which, however, had nothing to do with the Freemasons, but with the so-called Guttemplers.
The Gestapo occupied the house in 1934; it was later sold to the city. It was then used as a warehouse, as a museum of local history, as an air-raid shelter during the air raids on Flensburg, and in 1946-47 as police headquarters. The house was transferred back to the city in December 1950 with further partial use, and its use as a museum ended in 1955. In 1974, it was transferred to the Grand National Lodge of Freemasons of Germany because of the cost burden.
