League President Dr. Reinhard Rauball and DFL CEO Christian Seifert will award FC Bayern München with the 2015/16 Bundesliga title after Saturday's season finale against Hannover 96 at the Allianz Arena.

The name of the defending champions will be engraved on the 11-kilogram Meisterschale, which is insured for €50,000 and was created in 1949 by Elisabeth Treskow in the Kölner Werkschulen, after the original Viktoria trophy went missing.

Bayern secured a record fourth successive Bundesliga title and 25th since the Bundesliga's formation in 1963 last weekend. A special badge will adorn the sleeves of the Bayern shirts in the coming 2016/17 campaign to commemorate their achievement.
