The Medal of the Red Cross is a royal decoration of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to be awarded for dedication and important services to the Netherlands Red Cross.
The medal is classed as an official Dutch royal decoration as it was not created by the Netherlands or international Red Cross, but by royal decree on 5 October 1910 by the Dutch government.
It was last awarded in 1967.
