history

The Grafschafter messages were in 1949 by the two Altverlegerfamilien Kip ( Nordhorn / New House ) and Hellendoorn ( Bentheim founded). The direct predecessor newspapers were the right-wing Protestant Nordhorner Nachrichten from the Kip publishing house and the Neuenhaus newspaper and advertisement sheet intended for the Niedergrafschaft, which was also produced by this publisher and was first published in 1874. In 1943 the Neuenhauser Blatt had to merge with the Nordhorner Nachrichten .

The Hellendoorn publishing house had been distributing the politically neutral, Protestant-oriented Bentheimer Zeitung since 1879, but renamed it Grafschafter Kreisblatt during the Nazi era . All other Grafschafter newspapers were discontinued in favor of these two publishers for political or economic reasons during the Nazi era. B. the Catholic Nordhorner Anzeiger , the Schüttorfer Zeitung , the Nordhorner Tageblatt or the Grafschafter Wochen-Rundschau . After the Second World War , the two publishing houses jointly founded the Grafschafter Nachrichten, the first edition of which appeared on November 1, 1949. The initial circulation was 6,000 pieces.

In 1967 the GN took over the now heavily reduced edition of the competitor newspaper Grafschafter Tagespost .

Due to the newspaper crisis and the death of newspapers in the early 1970s, the GN entered into a cooperation with the Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung (NOZ) on April 1, 1974, in such a way that they finished the newspaper cover , i.e. the supraregional news and reports, and the printing and coordinated the advertising business. Since then, the GN itself has only created the local section, local sports section and regional advertising section.

After the publishing house on Ootmarsumer Weg had already become too small in 1976 and an extension proved to be impractical, a new building was built in Nordhorn's then new commercial and industrial park (GIP), which was occupied on August 15, 1980. The office remained in Hauptstrasse. At the end of 1982 a purchase agreement for a 32-page Uniman 4/2 offset rotary press was signed , which enabled the company to switch to offset technology. In 1984 the new print shop went into operation, which was able to print the current print run of 20,205 copies in just over an hour. In November 1987 the foundation stone was laid for a new administration building, which the company moved into in spring 1988.

From December 1997, the GN appeared in a new design in terms of content and design. The regional reporting was extended to events beyond the district borders and into the Netherlands and, together with a new cultural section, was completely produced in the Nordhorn editorial team. At the same time, the GN website began.

In the debate about the introduction of ancillary copyright for press publishers , Grafschafter Nachrichten in 2013 was one of the few publishing houses to position itself against ancillary copyright.
