One of Freemasonry's oldest symbols is the Masonic trestle board. Often confused with its similar counterpart, the tracing board, the trestle board is, literally and figuratively speaking, the blueprint of which our ancient fraternity was built upon. In the days of the stonemasons' guild, a trestle board was a board, sometimes on an easel, where the plans for construction were laid for apprentice masons to follow. In the 21st century, the trestle board remains a signature emblem of a man's journey through life and Freemasonry. In this blog, we'll walk you through the significance of the Masonic trestle board, as well as explore the history of Masonic tracing boards.
