Feldkircher Lyrikpreis Explained

The Feldkirch Poetry Prize, in German Feldkircher Lyrikpreis, was initiated by Erika Kronabitter, an Austrian artist and writer, and is awarded annually by the Theater am Saumarkt in Feldkirch, Vorarlberg/Austria. The sponsors include the Austrian government, the local authorities of Vorarlberg as well as private banks. In 2003, the poetry prize was awarded for the first time.

On an international basis, poets are invited to submit their German-language poems. The jury is composed by German philologists and poets. The awarded poets are presented to the public during autumn each year. The winners' texts are archived in the Library of Vorarlberg.
