What is the name of the Masonic lodge that Pierre joins in War and Peace?

The Masonic lodge Pierre joins in War and Peace is the Lodge of the Three Virtues. His initiation follows a period of moral confusion, especially after his unhappy marriage and duel with Dolokhov.

Pierre encounters Freemasonry while searching for a purpose larger than wealth, social status, or personal pleasure. The lodge's ceremonies introduce him to symbolic tests, secrecy, obedience, and a program of moral self-improvement. Its three central aims are commonly presented as personal purification, the regeneration of fellow members, and the improvement of humanity.

Tolstoy uses Pierre's Masonic experience both seriously and critically. Pierre is genuinely moved by the ideals, including charity and brotherhood, but he soon notices that the men around him do not always live up to their principles. The lodge is therefore not simply a secret-society subplot: it marks a stage in Pierre's spiritual development. The name should not be confused with the Eastern Star, a modern Masonic-affiliated organization, or with invented alternatives such as the Lodge of the Three Keys.
