Greece: Royal Order of the Redeemer, Officer's
Cross, 4th Class.
This form, introduced in 1863, features the icon
of Christ the Redeemer in place of King Otto’s
portrait.
The Order was established in 1829 by the 4th
National Assembly of the Hellenes, in Argos, in
order to reward those who had fought for and
supported the War of independence.
Its issuance started by Royal Decree of King
Otto in 1833.
The Order is awarded to "distinguished Greek
citizens who have defended the interests of the
Country in War time or who have rendered
highly exceptional social services in Greece or
abroad".
It remains the Highest Honor of the Hellenic
Republic in its new form since 1974 (without the
crown).
