Knights of Wise Men Lodge
Knights of Wise Men Lodge, Community lodge in Saint Helena Island, Beaufort County, US.
The Knights of Wise Men Lodge is a rectangular two-story building with a stepped facade and cinder block construction on Saint Helena Island.
Established in 1870, the organization purchased land for eight dollars in 1889 and rebuilt their current structure in 1942 after a fire.
The lodge served as a central meeting point for African American residents, supporting families through financial and agricultural assistance programs.
Located at the intersection of Martin Luther King Drive and Highway 21, the building functions as a gathering space for community events.
During local celebrations at The Green, this National Register of Historic Places structure operated simultaneously as a dance hall and detention facility.
