The Roswitha Prize (German: Roswitha-Preis) is the oldest German language prize for literature that is given solely to women.
The Roswitha-Medal has been given almost yearly since 1973 by the city of Bad Gandersheim.
In 1998 it received its modern designation along with an endowment of €5,500. It is named for Roswitha of Gandersheim, a 10th-century Benedictine nun who is considered the first female German playwright and author.
