The Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters of Portugal, was chartered in September 1st, 1998, signed by the Most Puissant Companion E. Wesseler. Although we are a very young jurisdiction, we are growing, slowly, but growing… We have currently 180 members distributed in 7 councils throughout the Portuguese Territory.

Every year the Grand Council of Royal and Selected Masters of Portugal holds its Annual Assembly on the second weekend of March. Next year, 2020, we will be celebrating the 22nd Annual Assembly of the Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters of Portugal that will be held in Lisbon, at the Altis Grand Hotel, on March 13th and 14th.

Next year’s Assembly, with the Annual Convocation of the Supreme Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons of Portugal and the Annual Conclave of the Grand Commandery of Knights Templar of Portugal, will put together the Portugal Annual York Rite Joint Meeting.

All Companions and Sir Knights are invited to be a part of it.

Further information will be sent out through the Grand Recorder, or you can also go directly to our website www.gcmrep.pt to the page Assembleia Anual (Annual Assembly) and keep updated on all information concerning the 22th Annual Assembly of Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters of Portugal and 2020 Portugal Annual York Rite Joint Meeting.

Please join us and let us guide you on your trip, to our Annual Joint Meeting, but also to the Portuguese food, one of the \”best kept foodie secrets in Europe\”, to the Portuguese wine, to the Portuguese music, where Fado, elected by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage, is perhaps the most known symbol of the uniqueness of Portugal´s soul.

Surrender to the warm and fraternal welcoming of the Portuguese Companions.
