1763 - 1802

The Academy was founded in 1763 by Count Carl Theodor of
Pfälz (1724 - 1799).
According to
Rauter (1970), p.265, this Academy was founded
with the German name
Pfälzische Akademie der Wissenschaften
(Palatinate Academy of the Sciences).
Towards the end of Carl Theodor's life, the situation of the Academy became increasingly grave.
An 1802 date of termination is supported by the following passage in a page entitled
Die Kurpfälzische Akademie der Wissenschaften in Mannheim (1763-1802):
“Das Vermögen und die Sammlungen wurden 1802 nach München transferiert, die Mannheimer Akademie erlosch.
”
The Heidelberger Akademie der Wissenschaften (HAW) =
Heidelberg Academy of Sciences was founded in 1909, and follows in the
tradition of the Theodoro-Palatina Academy.
