This is an original Belgian National Belgian Movement (Mouvement National Belge – MNB) Resistance Medal, awarded to members of the MNB who actively participated in resistance efforts against the German occupation during World War II. Instituted after the war, this medal honors individuals who risked their lives to fight for Belgian independence and aid the Allied cause between 1940 and 1945.

The MNB was one of the larger and more organized resistance groups in Belgium, notable for its activities in intelligence gathering, sabotage, dissemination of underground newspapers, and assistance to downed Allied airmen and Jewish families. Members of the MNB operated under constant threat of arrest, torture, and execution by German forces and collaborators, making this decoration a powerful symbol of personal courage and national defiance.

The medal features a bronze cross with a central emblem bearing the initials MNB and the dates 1940–1945. It is suspended from a black and white ribbon, representative of mourning and hope. This award serves not only as a commemorative piece but as a tangible reminder of the civilian and military resistance efforts that played a critical role in undermining the German occupation of Belgium. Collectors of WWII European resistance memorabilia or decorations of valor will recognize this as an important and evocative piece of wartime history.
