The Medal of Heroism (Czech: Medaile Za hrdinství) is principally a military award, but has occasionally been awarded to civilians. It rewards acts of "heroism in combat" or those "deeds aimed at saving other human lives or substantial material values" which put the recipient at significant risk of death. It is unique amongst current Czech decorations in that it has only a single grade or class. The medal was designed by Erna Masarovičová.
