The Agramer Zeitung was a German-language daily newspaper with the editorial office in Zagreb (German Agram ) in Croatia (in Austria-Hungary ). It appeared for the first time in 1830, at that time still as the "Agramerpolitische Zeitung", and is considered the first modern newspaper edited and printed in Croatia. In 1849 it changed its name to "Agramer Zeitung"; by the Zagreb people she was nicknamed "Agramerica" ​​("Agramerin"). The supplement to the Agramer Zeitung from 1830 to 1858 was the initially independent literary magazine "Luna". This occasionally contains contributions in the Croatian dialect form Kajkavisch . The target group of the Agramer Zeitung was the German-speaking upper class of the cities, including the immigrant Jewish intelligentsia and the officers of the military border. In 1912 it was discontinued after 82 years and has not appeared since.
