Respectable reader, Freemasonry is a path for the few to the moral and spiritual benefit of the many. It is an ancient, traditionalist, well-defined and built path for those who want to overcome their human condition, to become models of free builders of a modern society based on progress, fully respecting the national, cultural and religious values. Work is the highest goal by which a free man understands to perfect himself. Through work, with selflessness, the seeker will succeed to rediscover himself and reposition himself coherently in the work we have to fulfil.
CONTACT N∴G∴L∴R∴Freemasonry is an initiatory order built on high moral concepts and customs, on honest humanistic values such as the freedom and equality of people, tolerance towards the political and religious thinking of its members. The foundation of a Freemason is freedom of thought, expression and action in full harmony with the secular, moral and religious laws of the society to which he belongs. He is a faithful keeper of the faith in one Great Creator, symbolically named in the Masonic initiatory context, the Great Architect of the Universe, He who by word and love of men created them all.

The fact that Romania gained its state independence in 1877, boosted Masonic actions to establish a large sovereign Obedience in Romania. The founding of the National Grand Lodge of Romania took place on the 8/20th of September 1880. Captain Constantin Moroiu was elected as Grand Master.
