The Kulturpreis der Hansestadt Rostock is a German cultural award endowed with 3,500 euros.
From 1958 to 1995, up to five persons and associations were honoured annually, since 1996 it has been limited to one personality or association. Since 2003, the prize has been awarded every two years.
The prize is awarded to an individual or a body/association from the fields of culture, science, business and politics for an individual achievement or for a complete work, for cultural commitment and for achievements that significantly enrich the intellectual and cultural life of the Hanseatic city of Rostock. The cultural committee prepares a vote from the submitted proposals. The Lord Mayor decides on the awarding of the prize.[1]
