The investigation of the dynamics responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking is one of the prime tasks of experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The experiments ATLAS and CMS have been designed to be able to discover a Standard Model Higgs boson over the full mass range as well as Higgs bosons in extended models. In this paper, the prospects for Higgs boson searches at the LHC are reviewed. In addition, the potential for the measurement of Higgs boson parameters is discussed.
