History

The Honour Decoration of the Romanian Eagle was established by King Carol II in 1933 and was suppressed in 1947 after the fall of the Romanian monarchy. It was reinstated in 2004 following the collapse of the communist regime and is currently awarded to members of the Romanian Parliament, Senate, and Chamber of Deputies for meritorious service. It may also be awarded to foreigners in recognition of contributions to parliamentary relations with other sovereign states.

The I Class Commander (1933-1947) is identical to the Grand Officer (1933-1947), however, only the Grand Officer was worn with a Breast Star. It was only awarded in the Kingdom.

The later versions are listed in the Medals & Decorations of Romania (1990-).
