The History of Imperial Chivalry of St. George

Imperial Chivalry of St. George formed by the granting of an Imperial Knighthood to the Grand Comptur from the Patron of the Order and reigning Duke. The Imperial Knighthood is a legal title, and the Patron Duke granted the Grand Comptur the legal right to grant knighthoods upon others. Thus, the need for an Order of Chivalry arose. The Grand Comptur was granted the ability to do all necessary actions to create an Order of Chivalry by the Patron Duke. The Order within the United States was incorporated on February 14th, 2007.

Since then, the Order has formed a charter, approved by the Patron Duke and Grand Comptur. The Order has also developed this web site designed to provide information about the Order, information about Chivalry and Knighthood, and information about Heraldry.

The purpose of the Order is to attract knightly men and women to promote the ideals of Chivalry, Knightly actions and lifestyle, the principles of Christianity, and support like oriented organizations.

The Order shall have a yearly investiture ceremony where the Grand Comptur will grant legal knighthoods upon individuals, recognize the accomplishments of Brother Knights within the Order, and allow the Grand Comptesse to accept applicants into the Imperial Damehood of St. George (a branch of Imperial Chivalry of St. George).

Functions, communion of members, and other works of the Order shall be conducted to support the goals, ideals, and Christian charitable actions that will further the purpose of the Order. To view some of the Order's past works, please visit our works page.
