(26 Oct 2017) Sweden on Thursday honoured the late Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej, who was a knight of a Sweden order, with a ceremony at Riddarholm Church where Swedish monarchs are traditionally laid to rest.
The Thai King was the longest serving member of the Order of the Seraphim, having been appointed knight of the order by his Majesty King Gustav V of Sweden in 1950.
The Order of the Seraphim, or the Order of His Majesty The King, is the most outstanding distinction in Sweden.
Today it is conferred exclusively on members of the Swedish Royal Family and on foreign heads of state or other persons of comparable rank.
The Order of the Seraphim was instituted by King Fredrik I in 1748.
