The Darwin Lodge of Remembrance, 2025 Installation of WB McDonald, with the Grand Lodge of South Australia and the Northern Territory Installation team
Darwin Lodge of Remembrance No 182, was consecrated 2 July 1951
There was a surge of popularity of Freemasonry in general at the end of the Second World War with many ex-servicemen joining lodges, and Darwin was no exception.
A second craft lodge, meeting on a different night to the already established Port Darwin Lodge, but sharing the same Masonic building in Mitchell Street, became necessary to accommodate the increased members.
