Known awards from are:

Kgl. preußisches Eisernes Kreuz 2. u. 1. Klasse
Kgl. preußischer Hausorden von Hohenzollern, Ritterkreuz mit Schwertern
Kgl. preußischer Roter-Adlerorden 4. Klasse mit der Krone
Ghzgl. Mecklenburg-Schwerinsches Militärverdienstkreuz 2. u. 1. Klasse
Kais. osmanischer Osmanie-Orden 4. Klasse

Obviously he had other awards, as shown in the picture, but there is not enough detail to tell for certain.

Thanks Dave, I found 2 more photos of his from the Kriegsmarine era.
You will notice his only breast award is the EK I and no Mecklenburg Militärverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse. However I did find that he indeed had the Mecklenburg Militärverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse.
It is also possible he had the Medaille "Für Tapferkeit im Weltkriege 1914-1918", a.k.a. Kriegsdenkmünze des Bundes Deutscher Marine Vereine because he was the Chairman of the Union of German Naval Veterans Associations (from 1934 National Socialist German Navy Federation) from 1933 until 1941.
