Old Masonic Temple (Trenton, New Jersey)
Second floor interior in 1936

The Old Masonic Temple in Trenton, New Jersey is a historic building built in 1793 at the corner of Front and Willow (or Barrack) streets near the New Jersey State House, and across the street from the Old Barracks. In 1915 when a new building was constructed for the Trenton Lodge, the old building was moved half a block south to 102 Barrack Street. It has served as a Masonic Lodge, a school, a shop for a furnisher and upholsterer, a museum, and is now a tourist information center.[1] In 1970 the building became part of the State House Historic District listed by the National Register of Historic Places.

The building now serves as a tourist information center. The 1915 Masonic Lodge is behind the old building.
