The European Romanesque Center (Europäisches Romanik Zentrum, ERZ) awards outstanding international research of emerging young scholars on the field of the Romanesque period. The award is donated by the Stiftung Saalesparkasse (Halle).

The award aims to promote, to honour and encourage graduated junior researchers contributing to the study of art and architectural history, archaeology, history, history of theology and liturgy, history of the literature or the law of the early and high Middle Ages.

Only unpublished dissertations will be considered (PhD thesis). The award is supposed to promote graduates. It is valued at 2,000 EUR. The members of the ERZ’s international advisory board and the executive board will co-judge to the selection of the awardee. Accepting the award, the winner is encouraged to give a public lecture at the ERZ.
