Water and river engineering through the centuries on the Rhine, Moselle, Neckar, and Murg are the topics of the conference of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für geschichtliche Landeskunde am Oberrhein, the Department of History at KIT, and others. The Mannheim conference takes an interdisciplinary perspective on this subject area in order to bring together the aforementioned aspects of technical, environmental, political, social, and economic history. The program includes, among others, the lecture by Tilman Wagle, where he presents the Murg and its resources as a socionatural setting. The moderator of the evening lecture is Marcus Popplow.
