We present a connection between binary and ternary orthogonal codes and finite-dimensional modules of simple Lie algebras. The Weyl groups of the Lie algebras are symmetries of the related codes. It turns out that certain weight matrices of sl(n,C) and o(2n,C) generate doubly-even binary orthogonal codes and ternary orthogonal codes with large minimal distances. Moreover, we prove that the weight matrices of F4, E6, E7 and E8 on their minimal irreducible modules and adjoint modules all generate ternary orthogonal codes with large minimal distances. In determining the minimal distances, we have used the Weyl groups and branch rules of the irreducible representations of the related simple Lie algebras.
