history

On July 1, 1809, appeared heralds "a weekly entertaining and instructive" once a week with a first edition of 45 pieces. The publisher and editor-in-chief was the printer Carl Siebel. In 1822 the paper was renamed the Solinger Wochenblatt and in 1825 its circulation was already around 250 copies. Since 1834 the sheet has been called the Solinger Kreis-Intellektivenblatt and was called that until 1912.

Carl Siebel transferred the company to his son-in-law ND Hoffmann in 1855, from whom it passed to B. Boll in 1867, whose family still owns it today. On October 1, 1888, the paper became a daily newspaper.

On October 1, 1912, the name was again changed to Solinger Tageblatt . The publisher stayed the same. The number of columns was reduced from 5 to 3 (today there are 6) and the machine set was introduced. But pictures were still not possible in the short time it takes to produce a daily newspaper.

At the end of the Second World War , the Solinger Tageblatt , like all German newspapers, had to cease publication, but from December 1949 it was allowed to appear again. Since the publishing and printing building had fallen victim to the war, the publisher entered into an editorial partnership with the then Generalanzeiger Wuppertal and the Remscheider General-Anzeiger , the Bergischer Newspapers Working Group . The editorial office in Solingen is therefore not a full editorial office , but only produces the local section. The coat is obtained from the main editorial office of the Westdeutsche Zeitung in Wuppertal .

At the end of 2011, the Solinger Tageblatt publishing house acquired all title and publishing rights to the Remscheider General-Anzeiger with its head editions Wermelskirchener General-Anzeiger, Hückeswagener Stadtanzeiger and Radevormwalder Zeitung from JF Ziegler KG Druckerei und Verlag .
