The Transactions of Quatuor Coronati Lodge No.2076 are called Ars Quatuor Coronatorum, and often referred to simply by their initials AQC. There are now in excess of 120 volumes of papers and they represent the masonic issues and debates over each decade, together with discoveries and new theories.

To any masonic historian this is an enormous archive and as a taster we offer a selection of papers, some old, some new and these can all be downloaded. The selection of papers is wide and we hope everyone will find something of interest

The different volumes of AQC have been scanned at various times and thus the file size can be variable and not always related to the number of pages in the article.
