The Lampertheimer Zeitung is a daily newspaper published in the southern Hessian city of Lampertheim .
The newspaper was founded in 1876 by Heinrich Dennerle and initially appeared only twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The subscription price in the early years was 1.20 marks . After a few changes of ownership, the book printer Alwin Nietzsche finally managed to increase the circulation of the Heimatblatt to 1,000 copies. In 1903 the newspaper came to the entrepreneur Carl Möck, who had moved from Bavaria. The newspaper circulation rose to 2,300 copies within the next few years. Despite some difficulties in the First World War and the conformity with the Nazi regime , the owner family succeeded in steadily expanding the company and consolidating the position of the newspaper.
After the Second World War and the death of Carl Möck in 1945, the publishing house was passed on to his wife Lina and in 1953 to their son Carl Möck junior. The newspaper business was continued under the name Möck as a limited partnership until 1995. In 1976, the anniversary year, a modern press factory was available; the number of subscribers reached a high of 4,800.
In 1995, the previous owners finally transferred all parts of the business to VRM GmbH & Co. KG in Mainz. One reaction to this development was the founding of the Lampertheimer Tageblatt in the same year. The reason for this was the fear that local news and club coverage could be neglected under the new owner.
On August 17, 1999, this interlude, which was characterized by fierce competition, was already over again when the publishers of Lampertheimer Zeitung and Lampertheimer Tageblatt merged to form the common daily newspaper Die Lampertheimer . From then on, the Südhessische Verlagsgesellschaft Lampertheim mbH with its headquarters in the former rooms of the Tageblatt formed the framework for this . The shareholders were now in equal parts VRM GmbH & Co. KG , which is still responsible for printing with the publisher Wolfgang Martin.
A few years later it was renamed "Lampertheimer Zeitung" and Martin withdrew from the company. In the past few years one had to face increasing competition from Mannheimer Morgen , which since the beginning of the 1990s has also offered local reporting for Lampertheim and some neighboring communities under the title Südhessen Morgen .
