Nobel Prize

The Nobel Prize was established as per the will of Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite. The Swedish chemist entrusted that the money amassed by him goes for the recognition of breakthrough discoveries, and provides support to the scientific community.

Each Nobel prize is worth 10 million kronor and is given with a diploma and a gold medal. After the announcements are made in October, the recipients are handed the award during a ceremony held in Oslo, Norway on December 10 – the date of Alfred Nobel’s death. 

The prizes in medicine, physics, chemistry, literature and peace were originally mentioned in the will of Alfred Nobel. The economics award was added later by Sweden’s central bank in 1968.
