history
The association, which was founded in 1984, is named after the association, as well as the award it has given, to the local writer Maximilian Schmidt , who was given the name “Waldschmidt” by Prince Regent Luitpold in 1898. The Waldschmidt Prize in the form of an L-shaped granite stone trophy with a medal emblem and associated certificate goes to personalities or organizations who have made a special contribution to the region of the Bavarian Forest in literary, musical, artistic or other ways .
