Georg Christoph Lichtenberg Prize
The Georg Christoph Lichtenberg Prize is awarded every two years by the Darmstadt-Dieburg district , alternating between literature (since 1987) and the fine arts (since 1979). In addition to a certificate, the laureate receives an endowment of currently 10,000 euros, with two candidates also being split. A 14-person jury makes a pre-selection of the submitted works, whereby there is no thematic limitation or fixation on a literary genre.
The prize is named after the physicist and Enlightenment writer Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742–1799), who was born in Ober-Ramstadt .
