History The Royal Order of the Crown (German: Königlicher Kronen-Orden) was an order of chivalry of the Prussian monarchy equivalent in precedence to the older Order of the Red Eagle. It was conferred on qualified military officers and civilians, in recognition of meritorious service, from its establishment in October 1861 until the fall of the monarchy at the end of World War I in November 1918. There were multiple classes in the order, and it was conferred over 133,000 times.
