A brief history
The European Union Chain was an idea promulgated by La Chaine d'Union Europeenne (The European Chain of Brotherhood) Lodge No. 183 in Longwy, France by the then Worshipful Master, Bro. Eric Tedeschi on May 26th 2003. A joint meeting was organised with Brethren from Belgium and Luxemburg with the purpose of forging links with Brethren from Regular European Lodges so as to develop a reciprocal and sincere appreciation of our Fraternity. A "European Rough Ashlar" was designed to symbolise this European Masonic Union which is held by the hosting Lodge for the year and transferred to the successor Lodge.
The Ashlar is surrounded by links which represent each host Lodge that has had the privilege of organising a meeting.
