Is kilwinning really the zenith of world freemasonry? I have family that live near that town and would like to know if it is worth a visit. Look forward to a reply.
Bill.

The Mother lodge (lodge 0) is situated in the medieval streets of kilwinning and is quite near the original and first masonic lodge site in the world. In fact it is a mere handful of metres away from the original lodge. It is sitting in front of the now ruined abbey of kilwinning. Legend has it that the Templars brought sections of Enochs pillar to that abbey as well as many of the scrolls of King Solomons Temple before moving them to Rosslyn Chapel. The stone masons who build the abbey in the early 1100s were the first Freemasons.
