Germania Lodge, No. 46, Free & Accepted Masons is a Masonic Lodge that was chartered by the Grand Lodge of the State of Louisiana on April 18th, 1844. Although Germania Lodge is currently comprised of approximately 100 men from a broad range of heritages and backgrounds, it was founded by German-speaking gentlemen to provide an opportunity for conducting Masonic work in their native German tongue. The Lodge worked in the German language for one hundred years. In April, 1944 it was opened in German and closed in English and has worked in English since.

The Lodge originally met on the second and fourth Sundays of each month at 4:00p.m. Germania now meets on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month at 7:00p.m. The Lodge works in the Scottish Rite Symbolic ritual - one of only ten Lodges under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Louisiana which work in this historic ritual. The ten Scottish Rite Lodges comprise the 16th District of the Grand Lodge of Louisiana.
