While it traces its origin back to the Knights Hospitallers of Jerusalem,
in the 11th Century, the order was instituted on 14 May 1888 by Queen
Victoria in recognition of the work carried out. The Queen
made the British Order of St John a Royal Order of Chivalry
with the title ‘The Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St John of
Jerusalem’. The order spread through the Empire with Priories being
established in several countries.
Its ribbon is a plain, black, watered silk.
