National awards
Wiki Loves Monuments is a federative contest, and therefore each contestant is able to win prizes in their respective national contest when the national contest offers them. Some countries may opt to only offer symbolic prizes. Please take a look at these more specific websites for more details. You can find a list of the national contests on the
‘Participate’ page
