Plaridel Masonic Temple

The Plaridel Masonic Temple, is a reconstruction of a historic building located at 1440 San Marcelino Street in Ermita, Manila.

It is the headquarters of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the Philippines.

In 1919, it was sold to the Plaridel Temple Association, an exclusive corporation of Masons.

The Plaridel Masonic Temple property was handed to the Grand Lodge of the Philippines Islands in 1937 and had it improved a year after during the incumbency of Justice Jose Abad Santos, the Grandmaster.

During World War II, the temple was occupied by Japanese forces and got damaged, by fire, during the battle for the liberation of Manila in 1945.
