    What medal was this " Hausorden der Familie G?ring f?r Treue"


    Recommended Posts

    hello all,

    I dont know if this is the right forum to ask this, if not, please excuse me.

    looking for some items in the website Galerie d?Histoire - Andr? H?sken I found this " Hausorden der Familie G?ring f?r Treue" so I am wondering what kind of medal was this??? a private " order" of Goering?? or official award??

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello Humberto,

    Seems that this thread did not get the attention it does deserve, the so caleld "Hausorde .... HG" is a strange beast indeed.

    I have no acces towards my literature but iff not mistaking i think that there was a article on these in the Patzwall magazine. That can be found for sure on the website of Patzwall.

    As far as i do know it was a non official recognition from HG, he was after all very crazy about juwelery + keep in mind that such a thing was in earlyer times something that was rather for royal houses. In that way he was rather equal towards Napoleon. They both adopted certain symbols to create a myth arround them .

    For example:

    * Napoleon = adopted many symbols from Roman Times etc ...

    * Herm G?ring = he adopted also many symbols and in that it fitted to make a so called 'House Order", in that way he could use the system of awarding orders to get a certain shine and create a sort of medieval brotehrship.

    Very interesting when you think on this.

    Cordial greetings,

    Hello Stijn,

    thank you for your reply, very interested in deed, I think that were not many examples ( if this was not a unique one) of non official personal medals awarded by the high ranking members during the third reich.

    any idea of to who/how many were awarded??

    do you know another non official personal award like this??

    Cordial Greetings,

    Humberto

    I think many kings, princes etc had little "doodads" they gave out as a sign of appreciation, either as engraved snuff boxes, or unofficial pin on awards. Not to be worn on any uniform of course.

    I heard every baker and candy shop owner near carinhall got these ;-)

    Very funny!!! your right :cheeky:
