Karl Christian Nelle Stiftung (Stiftung KiBa) focuses on preserving evangelical churches in Germany, with a strong emphasis on structural repair, restoration, and long-term conservation of historic church buildings. Its support appears to target churches in need of roof, tower, and structural stabilization work, as well as projects that improve continued use and public visibility of churches. The foundation is also distinctive for recognizing exemplary church use and preservation through its award program, not just funding direct repairs.
Primarily project-based grants for church preservation in Germany, submitted through an online application process. It also runs a competition/award program honoring standout preservation or use projects; grant timing appears to follow set funding periods rather than rolling open applications.
Apply via the online application procedure and align proposals tightly with preservation, repair, or conservation needs of evangelical churches in Germany. Emphasize specific structural issues, heritage value, and how the work will secure continued use; watch the foundation’s announced funding cycles and deadlines for the relevant grant period.
