Ladies and Gentlemen, dear friends of the MGH,

as the founding fathers gathered in the Frankfurt home of Reichsfreiherr Karl vom
und zum Stein on 20 January 1819 to form a private society they called the
Monumenta Germaniae Historica, they could hardly have imagined that their
association would one day become an internationally recognised research institute
with contacts and fellows throughout the world. Rather, they were convinced that
their proclaimed goal of editing the complete Medieval Latin source material of the
German Fatherland could be accomplished within the timespan of one generation.

Generations came and went, the private society became a research institute with its
seat in Munich since 1967. But the MGH today are much more than just the Munich
institute. Numerous researchers work for the MGH in external branches at the
Academies of the Sciences in Berlin, Vienna, Leipzig, Düsseldorf, and Hamburg.
Furthermore, scholars in various European countries and in the USA also contribute
editions and monographs for the MGH. These many editors, largely working on a
voluntary basis, are of elementary importance to fulfilling the MGH edition
programme, and 200 years later it is still far from finished.

Our bicentenary celebrations reflect these realities: Since the Monumenta are
dependent on many people working in many places, we will therefore also be
celebrating not just in Munich, but at a number of locations.
It is our hope that we, the staff and researchers of the Munich institute and
the external branches of the MGH, have succeeded in creating a programme
which will, on the one hand, stimulate your interest and, on the other,
demonstrate and contribute to the sense of community among “Monumentists”!

I warmly invite all of you who share this feeling of community with the MGH to
participate in one or more of our bicentennial celebrations. In the coming events of
this anniversary year, let us together set milestones for the future of the Monumenta
Germaniae Historica!

Yours sincerely,

Martina Hartmann
PRESIDENT

    The MGH section „Diplomata“, Vienna

    As early as 1875, Theodor von Sickel, the director of the Institut für Österreichische
    Geschichtsforschung, was entrusted with leading the MGH section „Diplomata“. In
    1904, Viennese charter specialists were officially commissioned with editing the
    royal and imperial charters of the Hohenstaufen in the name of the MGH. Despite
    the many political and academic vicissitudes of the interceding decades, the Austrian
    editors have meanwhile succeeded in publishing the charters of King Lothar III,
    King Conrad III, Emperor Frederick Barbarossa and King Philipp of Swabia in the
    MGH Diplomata series. Work on the charters of Emperor Henry VI and Emperor
    Otto IV is still in progress in Vienna, while the task of editing the charters of
    Emperor Frederick II has been handed over to the Bavarian Akademie der
    Wissenschaften, albeit under Austrian direction. At present, two projects at the
    Austrian Akademie der Wissenschaften and a third project at the Institut für
    Österreichische Geschichtsforschung continue the "Diplomata" tradition in Vienna.

    The MGH Berlin branch at the Akademie der
    Wissenschaften, Berlin-Brandenburg

    Although the MGH were initially founded in Frankfurt am Main, they moved to
    Berlin shortly thereafter in 1842 following their director, Georg Heinrich Pertz, and a
    number of his colleagues. More than one hundred years later, during the Second
    World War the institute was evacuated from Berlin to Pommersfelden in Bavaria
    together with its library, the president and some female members of staff, leaving a
    mere "torso" with reduced personnel in the capital city. At the end of hostilities, the
    Berlin institute was integrated into the East-German Akademie der Wissenschaften
    and existed in this form until the fall of the Iron Curtain. After the German
    reunification, it formed the nucleus for the MGH branch at the Akademie der
    Wissenschaften in Berlin-Brandenburg, becoming the second largest office of the
    MGH after the Munich institute. The Berlin branch is responsible for publishing the
    series „MGH Constitutiones et acta publica imperatorum et regum“ containing
    critical editions of the fundamental source material for the constitution history of the
    Holy Roman Empire in the fourteenth century. Since 1974, it has issued seven
    copious volumes covering the reigns of Emperors Charles IV and Louis IV, the
    Bavarian.

     Open house in the Munich institute

     Ludwigstr. 16, 80539 Munich

     THURSDAY, 27 JUNE 2019

     On 27 June, the institute opens its doors, inviting interested visitors to view its rooms
     in the building of the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, where it has been seated since 1967.
     An exhibition with original documents illustrates the ups and downs of 200 years
     Monumenta Germaniae Historica. From riding the wave of upper-bourgeois
     historical enthusiasm through being instrumentalised for National Socialist
     propaganda to pionieering digitisation projects, the history of the MGH offers an
     exemplary study of the fortunes of humanity studies institutions in Germany in the
     19th and 20th centuries.
