The Salzburger Nachrichten is a German-language daily newspaper published in Salzburg, Austria. It has been in circulation since 1945.

History and profile[edit]

Salzburger Nachrichten was established in 1945 by the American forces occupying Austria following World War II.[1][2][3] The first issue appeared on 25 October that year.[4] It remained under the control of the US Information Services Branch for a long time.[5] When the paper became under the Austrian supervision, its early contributors were Viktor Reimann, Ilse Leitenberger and Alfons Dalma who were affiliated with the anti-Fascist groups during World War II.[4] In the post-war period Salzburger Nachrichten focused on provincial events and news and did not exclusively cover significant events of the period such as the trials of the Nazi figures in Nuremberg.[4]

Salzburger Nachrichten is owned by a family company,[3] Salzburger Nachrichten Verlag.[1][6] Its publisher is Maximilian Dasch Jr,[3] and its headquarters is in Salzburg[1] which was designed by the Italian architect Gio Ponti.[7] As of 2002 the paper was one of four quality daily newspapers with nationwide distribution along with Der Standard, Die Presse, and Wiener Zeitung.[8]

Salzburger Nachrichten is published from Monday to Saturday[3] in broadsheet format.[1] The paper features daily science and technology news.[8] It has a Christian-liberal and conservative stance.[3]
