History


The Life Saving Medal was established by Presidential Decree in 1928, but it fell into abeyance following the end of the Second World War.

It was conferred upon civilians and military personnel for risking their life in saving another person. Each subsequent award is represented by a star clasp on the ribbon.

The Silver Medal features an obverse inscription that translates to "Republic of Poland,” and a reverse inscription that translates to “For Life Saving.”

There may be additional versions of the Silver Medal that differ in size.
