The Internationale Hegelgesellschaft e.V. (International Hegel Society) claims to be Germany's oldest surviving Hegel Society. It was founded 1953 in Nürnberg by Wilhelm Raimund Beyer (1902-1990).

Mr. Beyer's efforts were supported by the City of Nürnberg in its celebration of the facts that Hegel taught in Nürnberg and that Hegel's wife, Marie Tucher, was the daughter of a well-known Nürnberg family.

The society currently supports over a thousand members from its Berlin headquarters. The results of their meetings are published in the Hegel Jahrbuch (Hegel Yearbook) which is available at Akademie Verlag, Berlin.
