Palatinate Free Press
The Palatinate Free Press was a social democratic party newspaper for the West and North Palatinate . The newspaper was published in Kaiserslautern during the Weimar Republic (from 1921) . As a result of the National Socialist seizure of power, the newspaper had to be closed on March 13, 1933.
At the end of 1887, a newspaper of the same name in Kaiserslautern was discontinued by the SPD . The Palatinate Free Press, which was founded in Ludwigshafen am Rhein in January 1888 and published and edited by Josef Huber as a weekly newspaper , was also discontinued after constant confiscations by Bavarian government bodies after four issues in the same month. In 1890 the social democratic “Volksstimme”, Mannheim, to which Josef Huber belonged as an editor, took over the task of information and agitation for the Palatinate and Baden, from 1895 the Palatinate Post for the Front and South Palatinate.
