The United Grand Lodge of New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory is the main governing body of Freemasonry within the Australian state of New South Wales that also wholly encloses the Australian Capital Territory containing the national capital city, Canberra. It originated from the union in 1888 of the earlier 1849 provincial Grand Lodge under the United Grand Lodge of England and other district and provincial Grand Lodges of the Grand Lodge of Ireland and the Grand Lodge of Scotland. The United Grand Lodge of NSW and ACT building is located in Sydney. The foundation stone for the current building on Castlereagh street was laid on 15 May 1976. It was officially opened and dedicated on 10 March 1979. The office tower was built in 2005. The current building houses The Masonic Museum, which is open to the public.
