The Wheatland Masonic Temple in Wheatland, California is a historic building constructed in 1898. The ground floor has been used as commercial space since its construction. Until 1948 the upper floor meeting rooms were used jointly by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Freemasons. In 1948 the Masons bought out the Odd Fellows.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
