About

Founded in 1985, Denkmalstiftung Baden-Württemberg is a grant-making foundation based in Stuttgart, Germany working on heritage.

The Denkmalstiftung Baden-Württemberg is a civil-law foundation based in Stuttgart that works to preserve cultural monuments in Baden-Württemberg. It mainly supports private owners, citizens' initiatives and support associations with grants for restoration and repair, and it also supports municipalities and churches. The foundation was established in 1985 and is funded largely by lottery proceeds from GlücksSpirale and Toto-Lotto, together with donations and the capital provided by the state. Its work is carried out by volunteers on the board and supervisory board, with one full-time employee in the office. It also runs the Bürgerpreis, the Denkmal des Monats feature and the Denkmalstimme publication.
