history

Engadine Post

From 1877 to 1881 Elias Manzinoia printed the newspaper L'Engiadinais (Romansh for: The Engadine ) in Pontresina . He sold the print shop to Florian Gengel, who moved it to St. Moritz and operated it there as a branch of his Chur company. In 1892 it went to Manatschal, Ebner & Cie. From January 4, 1894, Manatschal, Ebner & Cie. the Engadiner Post as a German-language weekly newspaper. In 1938 Walter Gammeter senior bought the printing works in St. Moritz-Dorf. In 1964 the printing company became a family company in the second generation, and in 1984 Walter-Urs Gammeter took over the management. In 1987 the newspaper was briefly integrated into the Fögl Ladin .

In the course of the 1980s the print run could be increased to 8000, and in 1990 a modern print shop was moved to the edge of the village in St. Moritz-Bad. In 1997, with the integration of the Posta Ladina , the Engadiner Post became bilingual, German-Romansh. Around 80% of the Romance articles are written in Vallader , Lower Engadine , the rest in Putér, Upper Engadine . Among other things, the Engadiner Post / Posta Ladina - as it is officially called - is printed on an Albert A300 web offset machine. On December 5, 2009, the publisher Gammeter Druck und Verlag AG opened an office in Scuol with an editorial office accessible to everyone.

The editorial team currently (2018) has six permanent employees plus one internship. Editor-in-chief Reto Stifel has been in charge of the editorial team since April 1, 2009. Deputy is the person responsible for the Posta Ladina , Nicolo Bass.

On January 21, 2010 the Engadiner Post / Posta Ladina appeared for the first time in the current layout, which was designed by the designer Pius Schuler from Boll (BE). Before that, the sheet was published for almost 20 years with only a slightly modified layout (more color, larger images).

First edition of the Engadiner Post

Posta Ladina

When the Chur Südostschweiz Mediengruppe launched the Romansh daily La Quotidiana in the autumn of 1996 , it won over the editor-in-chief of the Romansh-language Engadin newspaper Fögl Ladin (Romansh for: Ladinisches Blatt ), Enrico Kopatz. Its publisher, the Engadin Press in Samedan, discontinued the Romance paper at the end of the year. Three weeks earlier, on December 5, 1996, Walter Urs Gammeter, publisher of the Engadiner Post , started a follow-up solution for the Romansh-speaking Engadin and the Münstertal with the Posta Ladina section (Romansh for: Ladin Post ) . Mainly on two to three pages in the otherwise German-speaking Engadiner Post reports on local events in the Lower Engadine and the Münstertal in the two Ladin idioms Vallader and Puter . Since then, the Quotidiana has established itself primarily in the Bündner Oberland and now publishes more than half of the texts in the local idiom Sursilvan . The first Romanesque newspaper in Graubünden was based in the Engadine: in 1720 the first Gazetta ordinaria da Scuol was published .
