The 5th International Europe Lodges Symposium

Wien Coat of Arms

The 5th International Symposium of Europe Lodges was held in Wien, Austria, during 11-13 May 2012. Wien is a great city, former imperial capital city, and everybody felt this reality, in many ways. The event was organized by our Brothers from Europa zu Neuen Welten Lodge and it has proved to be an important Masonic meeting.
