Welcome to the Lincoln Scottish Rite Website

 

The Lincoln Scottish Rite Temple was constructed in 1916 and part of 1917 by Olson Construction Company from designs by Berlinghof and Davis, at a cost of approximately $80,000. The building was dedicated and occupied on February 22, 1917. The low rear (east) wing was added by Olson in 1923 at a cost of about $12,000, after designs by Davis and Wilson.

The Scottish Rite Temple “represents a distinctive architectural style or innovation” as one of Lincoln’s best and most ornate Neo-Classical Revival structures, in addition to being “the work of a craftsman whose individual work is significant” in the development of the city, through its design by Berlinghof and Davis.
