Seibert held in 2007 in Munich with Eva Schlotheuber the conference "Bohemia and the German Reich. A comparison of the transfer of ideas and culture (13th - 16th centuries) ”.

The aim of the conference was "to look at the interwoven historical, political and cultural developments in Bohemia and the German Empire in the late Middle Ages and early modern times from a comparative perspective". The articles were published in 2009. On the occasion of the 700th anniversary of Ludwig's coronation as Roman-German King in autumn 1314, the Munich City History Working Group held a conference in 2012 to commemorate this event.
