Designed and built by Freemasons in the 1930’s, this monument to George Washington was made to resemble the Lighthouse at Alexandria, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Free tours are available daily except on major holidays. The tour takes visitors through a unique series of rooms each designed to illustrate some element of Freemasonry and presents visitors with artifacts from the group’s past. At the end, visitors are treated to an outstanding view of Washington D.C. and Old Town Alexandria.
