Lodge of Unity was granted a warrant by the Moderns' Grand Lodge on 17 March 1789 and met at Danzig, West Prussia, Germany. It seceded from the English constitution on 8 March 1790 but was not erased from the list of lodges until 1813 when the Moderns' Grand Lodge formed a union with the Antients' Grnad Lodge to form the United Grand Lodge of England. The Lodge continued to meet and is listed on the register of the Grand Lodge Royal York at Berlin, Germany.
