The Grand Master is Vittorio Emanuele, Prince of Naples, since 1983. The order was formerly awarded by the Kingdom of Italy (1861-1946) with the heads of the House of Savoy as the Kings of Italy. Originally a chivalric order of noble nature, it was restricted to subjects of noble families with proofs of at least eight noble great-grandparents. The order's military and noble nature was and is still combined with a Roman Catholic character. After the abolishment of the monarchy and the foundation of the Italian Republic in 1946, the legacy of the order is maintained by the pretenders of the House of Savoy and the Italian throne in exile.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"eMedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47406083932437,"sku":"EU22027","price":340.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/9105\/2053\/files\/MNC9431.jpg?v=1697493411"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.emedals.com\/collections\/europe-italy-orders-order-of-st-mau-lazarus.oembed?page=4","provider":"eMedals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
