Ernst-Dieter Hehl studied history and German as a teacher in Mainz and Freiburg from 1963 to 1968 . From 1969 to 1978 he was a research assistant at Alfons Becker's Department of History in Mainz. At Becker he received his doctorate in 1977 with a thesis on the legal evaluation of war in canon law of the 12th century. The work was awarded the Diether von Isenburg Prize in 1978. Becker also promoted his interest in papal history. In 1992 he completed his habilitation in Mainz under the aegis of Stefan Weinfurter and Alfons Becker. In 1998, Hehl was appointed adjunct professor in Mainz. From 1978 to 2009, Hehl worked as a research assistant at the Academy of Sciences and Literature . There he was entrusted with the edition of the councils of Germany and Imperial Italy in the 10th and early 11th centuries.

His main research interests are the edition of the Councils of Germany and Imperial Italy 920 to 1022/23, questions of the Ottonian-Salian imperial church, especially from the perspective of the history of canon law, as well as church and war. Hehl shows through a series of conflict cases that the episcopate was by no means a loyal group to the king. In 2019 he published a monograph on Gregory VII and Henry IV in Canossa 1077 .
