Mackey that explores the traditions and practices of the German stonemason guilds. The author delves into the history of these guilds, tracing their origins back to the Middle Ages and examining their evolution over time. He explores the rituals and ceremonies that were a part of the stonemason's life, including the use of secret symbols and handshakes, and the strict codes of conduct that were enforced within the guilds. Mackey also provides insights into the role of stonemasons in the construction of some of the most iconic buildings in Europe, including the cathedrals of Cologne and Strasbourg. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of architecture, the medieval period, or the traditions of skilled trades.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: History of Freemasonry Part 3, by Albert G.
