Victoria Masonic Temple, Masonic temple in Colombo, Sri Lanka.

The Victoria Masonic Temple features Neo-Georgian architecture with a front porch, upper room, and internal fittings crafted from teak and brass materials.

The temple opened on September 1, 1901, following construction that began with a cornerstone ceremony in 1900 to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.

The main hall of the temple regularly hosts Masonic Lodge meetings for three different jurisdictions: the District Grand Lodge, Provincial Grand Lodge, and Scottish Superintendency.

Located at coordinates 6.922917, 79.847889, the temple maintains its original function as a meeting place for Masonic organizations in Sri Lanka.
