The Karl Valentin Order was established by the Carnival club Munich Society Narrhalla e.V. on the occasion of its 80th anniversary. It was awarded for the first time in 1973.[1] The Karl Valentin Order commemorates the legendary Bavarian humorist Karl Valentin (1882–1948).[2][3] According to the foundation's protocol, the medal is awarded to a personality from art, politics, science, literature or sport for a humorous and profound comment or deed, for extraordinary work as an artist or to an outstanding figure in public life.[1] The award ceremony takes place at the beginning of each year as part of the Narrhalla Soirée in the Deutsches Theater Munich.[4]
