Up to now, Herrenhaus Edenkoben has been sponsored exclusively by private donations
There might not be many places in Germany where
contemporary art, literature and music of such
high international standard are sponsored to such
an extent by private initiatives. This has been
the case here in Edenkoben for fifteen years now.
We are very proud that here long-lasting relationships
between sponsors and artists have developed.
We all know that without such private support
and initiatives these far-reaching developments
would not have been possible; developments
for the artists and developments in the Herrenhaus.
This place would simply not exist where
so much art and music were created and
so many poems and novels were written.
Many of the works and their authors have won awards in the meantime. And all the concerts, readings and exhibitions that enriched our lives, would never have come to existence without this support.

„Wenn es das Herrenhaus Edenkoben im Herzen des „blühenden Garten Deutschlands“ nicht gäbe, müsste man es erfinden. Ein Ort der Stille, der künstlerischen Kreativität, des fruchtbaren Zusammenwirkens von Musik, Literatur, Malerei und Bildhauerei – und ein Ort landschaftlicher Schönheit und des Weins“.

und Frau Dorothea Zapp
Es macht mir Freude, dem Ehepaar Prof. Konrad und Barbara Stahl und dem Herrenhaus Edenkoben helfend zur Seite zu stehen, und damit jungen Künstlern Gelegenheit zu geben, ihre Ideen in Ruhe zu verwirklichen. Ausserdem handle ich so auch im Sinne meines lieben Mannes.
