(11061) Lagerlöf is an asteroid of the central main belt that was discovered by the German astronomer Freimut Börngen on September 10, 1991 at the Thuringian State Observatory in Tautenburg ( IAU code 033).
Mean distance from the Sun ( major semiaxis ), eccentricity and inclination of the orbit plane of (11061) Lagerlöf roughly correspond to the Dora family, a group of asteroids named after (668) Dora .
The track from (11061) Lagerlöf was secured in 1999 so that numbering could be assigned. The asteroid was named on January 24, 2000 at the suggestion of Freimut Börngen after the Swedish writer Selma Lagerlöf (1858–1940), who in 1909 was the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature . A Venus crater on the northern hemisphere of the Venus was named after Selma Lagerlöf in 1985 : Venus crater Lagerlöf .
