HERALDIC INSTITUTE
Heraldic Institute Calendar 2027
After the success of our 2025 and 2026 Calendars the Institute will continue Otto Hupp's Munich Calendar for a third year.
The Editor is delighted that the foreword will be written by Prof. Sir Richard J. Evans, former Regius Professor of History, University of Cambridge.
Brady Brim-DeForest of Balvaird Castle, Baron of Balvaird, Hon. Fellow, is generously supporting the publication again, ensuring its success.

Past feedback for the Heraldic Institute Calendar:
"It lives up to the hype and then some!"
"You have really outdone yourself here. This is a worthy successor to Hupp. Fantastic work!"
"It feels like a publication of an established and experienced organisation that has done this before."
Competition

The main feature will be twelve (+) heraldic images provided by Fellows of the Institute together with possibly a spot or two to selected individuals from outside.
The illustrations featured alongside the 12 months of the year with an updated list of saints days (Catholic, Anglican and Orthodox), major festivals of other world religions and UN days of commemoration. We also included some major chivalric and dynastic orders.
The format followed exactly that of Otto Hupp: 32cm (approx. 12.5inches) x 16cm (approx. 6inches). We used fine, Swedish-made Munken paper (one of the world’s most environmentally-friendly paper mills). The whole was printed & bound in Germany (entirely powered by renewable resources).
The Calendar is a numbered limited edition of 250.
