The Grosch Medal
The Grosch Medal is a Norwegian architectural award given to people who have made significant contributions to the quality of Norwegian architecture.
Launched in 2001, on the 200th anniversary of the birth of the architect Christian Heinrich Grosch, the medal was first awarded to Sverre Fehn.
The award can be given either for original designs of high architectural value, or for projects that promote the understanding of the same values through restoration projects or similar work.
The Grosch Society, which awards the medal, was founded in 2000. The society works to promote appreciation of the distinguishing qualities of buildings designed by Grosch, and via the medal to promote those qualities in contemporary architecture.
