Cóndor

The Cóndor is a German-language foreign newspaper in Chile . It was founded in 1938, making it the third oldest newspaper in Chile and the only one in the German language.

The newspaper goes back to a merger of several publications by the German immigrants who settled in Chile from 1850. With the name “Cóndor”, the German-Chilean community expressed its solidarity with the country of Chile, whose coat of arms is adorned with the bird of the same name . The "Cóndor" is one of the oldest German-language newspapers outside the closed German-speaking area. It is particularly well known for its innovative design.
