The Flea Box was the oldest youth magazine in the world. It was founded in 1876 under the title Jugendlust . Due to declining subscriber numbers, the publisher discontinued the issue on December 31, 2018. The reason for this was the sharp decline in the number of subscribers.

The flea box was published every two weeks by Domino Verlag . The educational editorship consisted of teachers and school principals from a total of twelve federal states.
