ORDER
OF THE
WHITE
LION Characteristics The Order of the White Lion is an award given to Czech citizens by the President of the Czech Republic for their outstanding services to the state, eminent contributions to the defense and security of the state, significant leadership and combat activities, scientific and professional work for the military and defense, and noteworthy promotion of the country’s reputation abroad. Foreigners are awarded the Order of the White Lion for their exceptional service to the country.

The badge, which experts consider to be one of the most beautiful in the world, depicts the five classes of the Order as a five-sided, red enameled star, with all classes joined together by linden tree leaves. The center of the star is decorated with the traditional emblem of the Czech lands – a silver, two-tailed lion wearing a golden crown and golden armor, leaping through the air.

Among the recipients of the Order of the White Lion are true greats of our time, such as Czech President Vaclav Havel, American diplomat of Czech descent Madeline Albright, Czech businessman Jan Antonin Bata, Sir Nicholas Winton, General John J. Pershing, Nikola Tesla, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Paul-Henri Spaak and many others.

The Czech national symbols, in the form of linden tree leaves and a double-tailed lion, are the main decorative motifs of the CZ 75 Order of the White Lion limited edition. All were created with the support and cooperation of the Office of the President of the Republic.
