Goldene Löwe
Award
ABOUT
The Löwe von Radio Luxemburg (Golden Lion) was one of the most respected music awards in Europe, presented by Radio Luxemburg from 1959 to 1995. It honoured outstanding achievements in Schlager and pop music and was awarded in four levels: Gold, Silver, Bronze, and the Ehrenlöwe (Lion of Honour).
Over the decades, it became a significant marker of success, celebrating both German and international artists who shaped the musical landscape. At the end of the 1990s, the lion was finally merged into the German Television Award together with the Telestar of ARD and ZDF.

Award
ABOUT
The Goldene Europa (Golden Europe) award was the oldest television award in Germany, presented by Saarländischer Rundfunk (SR) from 1968 to 2003, with the exception of 1989 and 2001. Since 1981, the award ceremony was also broadcast on television. With only a few exceptions, the gala took place in Saarbrücken, Germany.
Presenter Dieter Thomas Heck played a key role in establishing the award. When SR decided in 1979 to also honour international artists, Heck withdrew from the project and went on to create the Goldene Stimmgabel. Over time, the Goldene Europa
expanded beyond music and was later awarded in categories such as comedy, entertainment, politics, sports, and acting.
HEINTJE
Heintje received this prestigious award on December 5, 1969 in Wiesbaden, Germany.
