Great to be
a MASON!
Bellefonte Lodge # 268 Free & Accepted Masons is the basic organizational unit of Freemasonry. The lodge meets regularly on the third Tuesday of each month to conduct the usual formal business of any small organization (pay bills, organize social and charitable events, elect new members, etc.). In addition to business, the meeting may perform a ceremony to confer a Masonic degree or receive a lecture, which is usually on some aspect of Masonic history or ritual. The bulk of Masonic ritual consists of degree ceremonies. Candidates for Freemasonry are progressively initiated into Freemasonry, first in the degree of Entered Apprentice. Some time later, in a separate ceremony, they will be passed to the degree of Fellowcraft, and finally they will be raised to the degree of Master Mason. In all of these ceremonies, the candidate is entrusted with passwords, signs and grips peculiar to his new rank
The red building you see at 125 North Allegheny Street in Bellefonte was originally a two-story, five bay brick house built in 1835 by the Humes Family. The third story was added in 1900. It is the Bellefonte Masonic Hall. You can see the emblematic stained glass windows on the façade. This home was used by General James Irvin as his Bellefonte residence.
