The 1st class knighthood shown here was awarded until 1854 as a one-class knighthood.
The order was established by the Dukes Henry of Anhalt-Kötensky (1830-1847), Leopold Friedrich of Anhalt-Dessau (1817-1871) and Alexander Karl of Anhalt-Bernburg (1834-1863). As it was said, the order was awarded for loyalty and devotion, talents and legitimate official activities. The classes of the order were originally: a large cross, commander, knight, gold and silver medals for merit. Effective March 18, 1848, commanders were assigned to the 1st Class with a star and 2. Class without stellar division. On February 8, 1854, the following unit took place. Knights became Knights 1. Class in Gold and Knights 2. The class is divided into silver.
On July 18, 1864, swords were added to them for their merits in the war. They are installed between the support ring and the eye of the medal. In 1901, the crown was presented to the Grand Crosses, Commanders and Knights.
