==History==
Freemasonry came to California in the wake of the Gold Rush of 1849. The first meeting of California Lodge No. 13 took place November 17, 1849, on Montgomery Street. The Montgomery Street location was replaced by a new Masonic Hall on Kearny and Pine Streets June 6, 1850, and renamed the California Masonic Lodge No. 1.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.calodge1.com/lodge.html )〕 The current location opened in 1958.
