Research Center for Supreme Jurisdiction in Pre-modern Europe

The research center located in the same building investigates the foundations, methods and impact of the jurisdiction of the Imperial Chamber Court and other supreme courts in the Old Empire or Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation as well as the legal and social circumstances of the judges and lawyers.

The research center sees itself as a coordination point for all researchers working on the supreme jurisdiction in the Old Kingdom. International colloquia by renowned scholars on current research activities are held regularly on the Center's own premises.
