The Karl Jaspers Prize or Karl-Jaspers-Preis is a German philosophy award named after Karl Jaspers and awarded by the city of Heidelberg and the University of Heidelberg.[1] It was first awarded in 1983 "for a scientific work of international significance supported by philosophical spirit".[2] The Karl Jaspers Prize was initially endowed with 5,000 euros, though since 2013 this has increased to €25,000.[3] Next to the Friedrich Nietzsche Prize it is one of the highest awards in Germany awarded exclusively for philosophical achievements.
