Official Website of the Historic Masonic Lodge Chartered 1677
The Lodge Room is depicted in the painting "The Inauguration of Robert Burns as Poet Laureate of Lodge Canongate Kilwinning 1st March 1787". The Lodge continues to meet in this Room to this day and the Snetzler organ, which has been continuously played since it was built in 1757, is still pumped by hand. Click on the painting above to see an enlarged image, and the key figures.
Please be sure to return and watch the story of Burns's period in Edinburgh unfold through his connections with Lodge Canongate Kilwinning.
