The active history association of the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart is organising a thematically very appealing and rich conference on "Monasteries, Spiritual Women's Communities and Church Foundations from the 19th Century to the Present" from 22 to 24 September in Weingarten Monastery.  Special focus is on the former Cistercian Abbey of Heggbach. The general theme is the massive ups and downs of the orders within two centuries: from the arduous revival of the orders after secularisation to the culmination of expansion before the First World War to the still unstopped rapid decline since the 1960s.

A conference on "Hubert Jedin (1900-1980): Storico del Concilio, cittadino di Trento" will be held in Trento on 13-14 October. Stefan Heid will speak about Jedin and his relationship to the Campo Santo Teutonico. Jedin remained closely connected to the German College of Priests from 1926 until his death. He experienced and knew six rectors, up to Erwin Gatz (+ 2011), who was even a student of Jedin's, insofar as he had attended his church history seminars in Bonn.
