    Help with Imperial Medals

    Hello all!

    I just got a Wehrpass in the mail. The man was awarded some medals during WW1. I have gotten the entry translated, as I could not decipher it.

    In addition to EK2+EK1, he was awarded the following medals:

    Fürstl.(ich) Lipp.(isches) Verd.(ienst) Kr.(euz)
    Fürstl.- Lipp. Ehren Kreuz für Helden Tat
    Kg. 1. Hausorden v.(on) Hohenz.(ollern) m.(it) Schw.(ertern).

    My question is as follows:

    Could anyone help me find more info on these awards. I guess these medals were awarded in different classes. Which one are these 3?

    Thanks in advance
    Robert

            I might be a bit slow, sorry for this.

            I have checked the link Gerdan posten. There seems to be a "Royal House Order" and a "Princely House Orden" category. I can't figure out which one of them this entry is:

            Is it The Royal House Order of Hohenzollern member with swords?

            Or is it the The Princely House Order of Hohenzollern Honor Cross 1st Class with swords?

            My German isnt the best :P

              I think it is the "Royal House Order" bacause it is written "Kg." - which means königlich.
