The Order of Vitéz was founded by the Governor of Hungary, admiral Miklós Horthy, in 1920. Its Captain General from 1977 to 2017 was József Árpád, Royal Prince of Hungary, and now his son, Prince József Károly.
The International Commission for Orders of Chivalry (I.C.O.C.) – a privately funded organization of experts in knightly orders, based in Milan – recognized the Order of Vitéz in 1962 and added it among its members.
