George Washington Masonic National Memorial
101 Callahan Drive, Alexandria, VA 22301
(703) 683-2007
Just a mile from the Potomac River, in historic Alexandria, Virginia, stands the 333 ft. George Washington Masonic National Memorial. Dedicated to the memory of George Washington – Patriot, President, Mason – the Memorial was dedicated on May 12, 1932, as an expression of the Masonic fraternity’s faith in the principles of civil and religious liberty and orderly government. The George Washington Museum in the Memorial contains the Washington Family Bible and many other Washington artifacts. There are several display rooms in the tower which is surmounted by a spectacular Observation Deck. Open daily with guided tours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Closed Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. Free admission. Take Metrorail’s Blue or Yellow line to the King Street station, exit the station and walk 1 block Southwest on Diagonal Road, turn right on Duke Street and walk 1 block West to Callahan Drive.
