Historical Background of University of Birmingham Lodge No. 5628
The University of Birmingham Lodge no.5628 is Birmingham's premier University lodge. The Lodge was founded on the 31st of October 1936 in Birmingham's Town Hall.

This is something that we still strongly stand for today, creating a place where we can bring together all current and past members of the Univeristy. We are open to all current and past students and staff of the University of Birmingham, as well as members of any of Birmingham's other Universities.
