History

Origins

Flensburg's first local newspaper appeared in 1766 and called itself Flensburger Address-Comptoir-Nachrichten. From 1788 to 1853 the "Flensburg weekly paper" brought besides messages still popular educational texts in the tradition of the Enlightenment. The "Flensburger Zeitung", published in 1840, the first daily newspaper of the Fördestadt, was published from 1865 under the title "Flensburger Nachrichten" and was predecessor of the Flensburger Tageblatt. [3]

Flensburg News 1865-1945

The first publisher of the Flensburger Nachrichten was the pharmacist Ponton, from Kolding, in 1865. The printer and travel agent Ludolf P. H. Maaß from Itzehoe took over the newspaper a year later. The newspaper is originally named Tanta Maaß, after the granddaughter of the former publisher (from 1866) and editor Ludolf Maaß. [4] Johanna Maaß was the daughter of his son, the publisher Friedrich Maaß, who took over the newspaper in 1892. Johanna Maaß was also the wife of aviation pioneer Hugo Eckener, who worked at the newspaper as a cultural critic. [5] [6]
