Stiftung KulturLandschaft Günztal

The Stiftung KulturLandschaft Günztal, founded over 25 years ago, is a dedicated organization that focuses on the preservation and promotion of biodiversity, communities, and habitats in the Günztal. The Günztal, a region in the Unterallgäu district, which is traversed by the Günz, is the lifeblood of our activities – from the Allgäu Alps to the Danube.

Our main mission is to give more space to the threatened nature in the Günztal and to protect biodiversity. We are committed to preserving natural resources and maintaining the cultural landscape. Our values are based on an inclusive and pragmatic approach that fosters close collaboration between donors, businesses, and the local community.

• Conservation Projects: We initiate and support projects aimed at protecting and restoring natural habitats.
• Environmental Education: Through various educational programs and events, we raise public awareness of the importance of conservation.
• Landscape Maintenance: We work on the preservation and care of the cultural landscape, including the meadows and pastures that are essential for regional biodiversity.
• Cooperations: Close partnerships with local businesses, donors, and the community are crucial to our success.

The Stiftung KulturLandschaft Günztal is committed to developing sustainable solutions for the challenges of conservation. These include:

• Protecting Biodiversity: We advocate for the protection and promotion of biodiversity in the Günztal by preserving and restoring habitats.
• Environmental Technology and Research: In collaboration with the Deutsche Bundestiftung Umwelt (DBU) and other partners, we promote innovative projects in the field of environmental technology and research.
• Eco-Model Region: The Günztal is part of the eco-model regions in Bavaria, highlighting our efforts for sustainable agriculture and environmental protection.
• Community Work: By involving the local population and collaborating with regional stakeholders, we ensure that our projects are long-lasting and effective.

Our work is made possible through the support of the DBU and other foundations, as well as the active participation of donors and businesses. The Stiftung KulturLandschaft Günztal has established itself as one of the leading organizations in the field of conservation and landscape maintenance in the region and contributes to the preservation of the natural and cultural diversity of the Günztal through its work.
