Eagle Lodge, chartered in 1791, was one of the first Masonic lodges chartered under the Grand Lodge of North Carolina. In 1793, members helped lay the cornerstone of the Old East building at the University of North Carolina in a ceremony marking the birth of public higher education in the United States.
Our home is an 1823 Greek Revival building designed by state architect William Nichols and built by John Berry. The building is a 40-foot cube with walls of solid brick.
Although Eagle Lodge has occupied the building since its construction, the hall also served as an opera house, unofficial town meeting hall, Civil War hospital and observatory for Burwell School students.
Our stated communications are the second and fourth Tuesdays of every month at 7:30 p.m. Come early for refreshments and fellowship!
