Today, the 29Th June, passes the 18Th anniversary of the consecration of the Grand Lodge Regular of Portugal by the Grand Loge National Française.

Grand Master Fernando Teixeira and Adao da Silva and Oliveira Marques from the Grande Oriente Lusitano had in the events [click] that led to international recognition. Our Brother A:.B:. is a swiss native and has become member of our Craft being its efforts to Portuguese Freemasonry recognized with the Diploma of Official of the Order GENERAL GOMES FREIRE DE ANDRADE, the most important Masonic insignia.
