About Stiftung Kirche und Kunst

Stiftung Kirche und Kunst supports the conservation, restoration, and public accessibility of sacred artworks and church heritage in the Evangelical Church in Central Germany, especially in Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia, and Brandenburg. Its funding is highly place-based and project-specific, typically backing the repair of altars, pulpits, baptismal fonts, altar wings, and other historic church objects, often alongside efforts to interpret and present these works to the public. The foundation appears to work closely with local church communities and support associations, helping preserve culturally significant village churches and their artifacts.

Giving Approach

Project-based grants of roughly $5,000-$20,000, awarded on an annual cycle with applications due in June for the following year. Funding is concentrated in Central Germany and appears to prioritize restoration projects that are ready to implement and tied to clear conservation or public-access outcomes.

How to approach this funder

Apply through the foundation’s annual project funding process by June for the next calendar year, and make sure the proposal clearly explains the conservation need, the historical significance of the object, and how the project will improve public access or interpretation. Eligibility is geographically limited to the Evangelical Church in Central Germany, so applicants should show a direct connection to Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia, or Brandenburg.
