WELCOME TO THE ORDER OF THE KNIGHTS OF RIZAL
This site is a tribute to Dr. Jose Rizal, the National hero of the Philippines.
Dr Jose Rizal inspired the Philippine Revolution and was executed by firing squad on 30 December 1896 at the age of thirty-five, for his works that led his country to Independence from Spain on June 12 1896.
The Order of the Knights of Rizal was establised on 30 December 1911 and was granted a legislative charter as a civic and patriotic organization on 14 June 1951 by Republic Act 646.
Rizal's brilliance is comparable with the greatest men that have ever walked the face of the earth. At once he can be described as one of the greatest; botanist, scientist, sculpters, artist, ophthalmologist, zooligist, linguist, engineers, educators and martyrs of all time.
"Dr Rizal's greatness-his genius and supreme love of country - is source of inspiration for all mankind. To be identified with this great man is an honour and privilege that all Filipinos share."
Sir JESS G. DIAZ KCR
Australia & Oceania Commander
