In 1608, the Duke of Mantua, Vincenzo I. Gonzaga established the dynastic honours, the Order of the Redeemer. Until termination of the honours in 1708, the insignia were worn by more than hundred Italian, mainly Mantuan and Monferrat noblemen. The only exception among them was the Hungarian nobleman who served as a Ban of Croatia, Count Thomas Erdödy. The study takes a closer look at the background of the honours, clarifying its nature and describing the insignia also pictured on the two heraldic monuments preserved in Mantua, directly related to the personality of Thomas Erdödy. It also explains the circumstances under which the Hungarian nobleman was granted the Order insignia, putting right the incorrect opinions on the burial of his body along with the honours.
