THE DAM PREIS
Since 2007, the DAM Preis for Architecture has been awarded annually to outstanding buildings in Germany. In 2021, the prize will be awarded by Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM) for the fifth time – in close cooperation with JUNG as a cooperation partner – in a staggered jury procedure. An expert jury chaired by Alexander Schwarz (David Chipperfield Architects, winner of DAM Preis 2020)  selected four projects from the shortlist as finalists for the DAM Preis 2021.

The internet presence for the DAM Preis dam-preis.de is now supplemented by the finalists 2021. The database offers a profound overview of current architecture in and from Germany.
