Schofield House, Federal architecture building in Madison, Indiana.
The Schofield House features a two-pitch roof intersecting with a hip roof, traditional six-over-six windows, and a stepped corniceline made of angled brick courses.
The property served as the founding location for the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Indiana, established during a meeting on January 13, 1818.
The structure contains a large second-floor lodge room that hosted Masonic ceremonies and accommodated overnight guests, with dining facilities on the ground level.
The Masonic museum, which opened in 1975, charges admission fees for non-Freemason visitors and receives funding through Indiana Freemason dues and donations.
The building integrates both residential and ceremonial spaces, with a corner room that functioned as a store selling fabrics, tinware, and basic groceries.
