Description

The Bundesdank badge was donated for the 50th anniversary of the Federation on July 29, 1923. It was the highest award of the federal government until 10 years later on the 60th anniversary the federal badge was donated with a crown. The most famous bearers were probably Kaiser Wilhelm II, Prince Johann Georg v. Saxony and Prince Friedrich Christian v. Saxony.

The Saxon Military Association was founded in 1873. From 1892 the name of the Royal Saxon Military Association was born. At that time the KSMVB consisted of approx. 1200 associations with approx. 137000 members. In 1889 the S.M.V.B. uniform badges introduced. These included member badges, function badges for the board members and later special badges for long-term membership. After the First World War in 1920, the medals of 1st and 2nd class were donated. These were supplemented in 1923 with the 3rd class badge of honor.

Other awards of the association that were donated in the 1920s were honorary princes, federal badges of honor. The badge of honor for women and the federal badge of honor with crown followed in 1930 and 1933, respectively. In 1933, like many others, the association was forcibly integrated into the NS-Kyffhäuser-Bund and brought into line. At the time of integration, the S.M.V.B. approx. 1,700 clubs with approx. 196,000 members.
