The history of Freemasonry encompasses the origins, evolution, and defining events of the fraternal organization known as Freemasonry. Firstly, the emergence of organized lodges of operative masons during the Middle Ages, then the admission of lay members as "accepted" or speculative masons, and finally the evolution of purely speculative lodges, and the emergence of Grand Lodges to govern them. The watershed in this process is generally taken to be the formation of the first Grand Lodge in London in 1717.
