The State Chancellery and Ministry of Culture of Saxony-Anhalt wants to support young artists with a three-month scholarship at Hundisburg Castle. Hundisburg Castle near Haldensleben is one of the most important rural Baroque castles in Saxony-Anhalt with its Baroque gardens. The castle’s vineyard house offers artists a place to stay and work. The State Chancellery and Ministry of Culture is funding the three-month stay (from August 17 to November 16, 2025) at Hundisburg Castle with a scholarship of 1,500 euros per month. The scholarship holder will only incur incidental costs in the amount of the fees incurred for the telephone and Internet connection. The call is primarily aimed at younger artists in the field of literature who have already achieved public recognition with their work and whose artistic development is still open. Applications from students are excluded. Please note: Applications from artists from Saxony-Anhalt are expressly encouraged, but not a prerequisite. Support for other artists is possible if their outstanding artistic work is of particular interest to the state or if a connection to Saxony-Anhalt can be established.
