The answer of martynback  See profile was rated best

after being elevated to the rank of the "Palladium of Belgium"

My comment:

Palladium = a sacred object believed to have special powers

The reference is pretty obscure - not many people would get it in French either.

So if I was translating this I would say "having achieved iconic status in Belgium".

An icon similarly being a sacred object that many people believe possesses mystical powers.
