The Order of St. John (Bailiwick of Brandenburg) Ehrenritter Neck Cross

Order of St. John – Ehrenritter Neck Cross

The Order of St. John Ehrenritter, or Knight of Honour, is a distinguished decoration awarded by the German Protestant branch of the Johanniter Order. This esteemed honour reflects centuries of chivalric tradition and Christian service.

The neck badge, known as the Ehrenritter Neck Cross, features a finely crafted white-enamelled Maltese cross edged in gilt. Between each arm of the cross rests a crowned Prussian eagle, symbolising nobility, loyalty, and historic ties to the Kingdom of Prussia.
