history
In honor of the late writer Kurt Morawietz , the state capital of Hanover, with the support of the Stadtsparkasse, donated the prize worth 5,000 euros in 1995 , which was awarded every two years . It could be awarded for a complete work as well as for an individual literary work of any genre. The winners were selected by an independent jury of experts. At the same time as the Gerrit Engelke Prize , which was launched on the initiative of Morawietz in 1979, it was discontinued in 2007 in favor of the then newly created Hölty Prize for Poetry .
