Recently, there has been raising interest in investigations of fundamental magnetic interactions in low-dimensional systems. One such interaction is the Kondo effect responsible for suppression of the local moment, while another one, the RKKY coupling gives rise to a long-range spin ordering. Spin-bearing molecules on metallic substrates present a platform to study the interplay of these two opposing effects and can lead to even more intriguing phenomena. Here we present the first direct observation of long-range ferrimagnetic order in a 2D molecular Kondo lattice created by the co-assembly of FeFPc and MnPc molecules. The chessboard-like patterns on Au(111) substrates, have been investigated by STM/STS, XMCD and the DFT+U. At the first glance 2D and 1D ordering is in conflict with the classical theory of magnetism. In the present system, however, the substrate is of key importance; observed AFM coupling between the Mn and Fe centers is mediated by the surface states of Au(111) making the ordering possible.
