The Most Honourable Order of the Bath is a British [[order of chivalry]] whose spiritual home is the abbey's Henry VII Chapel.{{sfn|Wilkinson|Knighton|2010|p=57}} The order was founded by [[George I of Great Britain|George I]] in 1725,{{Sfn|Duckers|2004|p=20}} fell out of fashion after 1812, and was revived by [[George V]] in 1913.{{sfn|Cannadine|2019||p=326}} The name derives from the elaborate medieval ceremony for appointing a [[knight]], which included bathing as a symbol of purification.{{sfn|Wilkinson|Knighton|2010|p=57}} Members are given stalls with their banner, crest, and a stall plate at installation ceremonies in the abbey every four years.{{Sfn|Duckers|2004|p=22}} Since there are more members than stalls, some members wait many years for their installation.{{sfn|Wilkinson|Knighton|2010|p=78}} The Order of the Bath is the fourth-oldest [[Orders, decorations, and medals of the United Kingdom#Current orders of chivalry|British orders of chivalry]], after the Orders of [[Order of the Garter|the Garter]], [[Order of the Thistle|the Thistle]], and [[Order of St Patrick|St Patrick]] (the latter is presently dormant).{{sfn|Duckers|2004||p=|pp=13-14}}
