The Freie Tribüne was a Jewish- socialist newspaper that appeared in Vienna between 1919 and 1921 .

The Viennese "Freie Tribüne" has only appeared on a weekly basis since January 10, 1919, and later every two weeks. The last edition appeared on November 21, 1921. The "Freie Tribüne" was the central organ of the Austrian regional group of the Jewish-Socialist World Association Poale Zion (PZ). It was based on the program of the Eastern European PZ regional associations, its goal was a connection between socialism and Zionist settlement colonization in Palestine , in which a Jewish-socialist state should be built. In the course of the Russian revolutions of February and October 1917, however, this goal faded into the background and the connection of the Poale Zion to the Communist International was discussed in the Free Tribune . The discussion, which was also held in other regional associations of the Poale Zion, led to a split in the association in 1920. The Free Tribune turned into a Communist newspaper, Zionist issues played a subordinate role, but did not disappear completely. In the following year, the "Free Tribune" ceased to appear.
