Wiener Werkstattpreis

The international Wiener Werkstattpreis is a literary award established in 1992 in Austria.

The organizers hope to bring public attention to writers who are not well known.

The grand prize is €1,100, with a second prize of €800 awarded by the audience.

In 2007, authors could compete in three categories: short story, poetry and essay.

Supported and partly financed by the Austrian government and the city administration of Vienna, the award is organized by the publisher FZA.
