Hero of the Czechoslovakian Socialist Republic was an order of merit awarded by the government of Czechoslovakia. The award was established by the government's decision No. 6/1955 Sb., dated 8 February 1955, regarding the awarding of the honorable title "Hero of the Czechoslovakian Socialist Republic" and establishing Order of the Red Banner, Order of the Red Star, Medals for Merits for Defense of the Country, and a Medal for Service for the Country.

The title Hero of CSR (later Hero of CSSR) was awarded to honor extraordinary merits for the republic connected with a hero achievement or repeated achievements. The title was awarded upon proposal of the government. The hero was awarded with Order of Klement Gottwald - for building of Socialist Homeland.

The Gold Star of the Hero of CSSR was worn on the left breast side above all the Czechoslovak Awards or their ribbons, always in natura and in front of the Gold Star of the Hero of the Socialist Labour.

Only 31 stars have been awarded.
