Ribbon bar of the Order of Flandrensis

The Order of Flandrensis (Dutch: "Orde van Flandrensis") is a chivalric order of the Grand Duchy of Flandrensis designed by Nicholas de Mersch d’Oyenberghe, which is the Grandmaster of the Order. It was established with the foundation of Flandrensis and is the oldest order in Flandrensis.

Currently, the Flandrensian Order is awarded by the Grand Ducal family for appreciation towards the citizens and the government of Flandrensis, especially for meritorious service in public employment. The Order is also eligible for bestowal to foreign nationals and was already awarded to personnel of other countries that had relations with Flandrensis. The Flandrensian Order is awarded by Grand Ducal Decree.

Degrees

The order is divided into two known degrees:

  • Grandmaster (which is covered usually by the Grand Duke)
  • Knight Grand Cross
