Freemasonry is the teachings and practices of a secret fraternity of men, formed from the origins of stonemasonry and cathedral builders in the middle ages. Since its beginnings, the brotherhood has increased in popularity, with the first Grand Lodge being established in the 1700s. Around this time, the order adopted the rites and trappings of ancient religious orders and chivalric brotherhoods.
