The Vaihinger Kreiszeitung (VKZ) is a local newspaper and is based in Vaihingen an der Enz .
The area between Pforzheim and Stuttgart ( Enzkreis and Landkreis Ludwigsburg ) is the field of activity of the local editorial team, which reports on political, cultural and sporting events. The district reform of 1972/73 brought about the dissolution of the district of Vaihingen , without breaking off established connections between the Baden and Württemberg parts of the country.
After various editorial collaborations, a partnership began in 1974 with the Stuttgarter Nachrichten while maintaining the economic independence of the family company. The national part of the newspaper, the coat , is obtained from the Stuttgarter Nachrichten . The local section is designed and produced in Vaihingen.

The VKZ appears in the Rhenish format and has a sold circulation of 6153 copies, a decrease of 25 percent since 1998. The weekly newspaper + Sachsenheim Post is part of the publishing program and the official journal of the city of Vaihingen is integrated into it .
history
In 1829/30 the printer Carl Burkhardt began his publishing career in Vaihingen and founded a newspaper that appeared twice a week ( Grenz-Bote ). The oldest verifiable edition dates from January 1, 1831. There it says: "Again a year has passed and a new one begins when the sprightly border messenger gives his gifts twice a week ..." From this it can be concluded that the newspaper is already Appeared in 1830. In 1848 a competition arises with the Vaihinger Tagblatt . The sheet appears from 1849 under the title Die Landpost . In 1849 Burkhardt called his newspaper the Enz-Bote . In 1852 the publication was discontinued because the economic basis was getting smaller and smaller. The newspaper appears again in 1854, now by DK Keyl. It was initially called The Narrator , and from 1855 The Enz-Bote . The newspaper receives the subtitle Official Journal of the City of Vaihingen . There is a long-term feud with the rural postal service. In 1862 the editor Geo Haid took over the Enz-Bote . In 1891, Haid's heirs sold the printing and publishing house to C. Carle, under whose direction the Enz-Bote grew.
In 1902 the newspaper appeared four times a week, from 1907 on every weekday. In 1919 the print shop owner Adolph Hoerger buys the Enz messenger and the rural mail . But he has to give up after four months. The print shop owner and publisher Wilhelm Wimmershof bought both sheets and merged them into the Enz-Boten in 1922 . The last issue of the Enz-Bote appears on April 7, 1945 .
In 1949 the publisher Wimmershof received a license again; the newspaper can appear again. The structure is mainly carried out by Dr. Wolfgang Wimmershof, son of Wilhelm Wimmershof. In addition to the newspaper, there is a printing press on the market square in Vaihingen, which produces a wide range of publications. In 1966 the Enz-Bote was renamed the Vaihinger Kreiszeitung . The VKZ is printed in Vaihingen until 1971, then at Z-Druck in Sindelfingen. In 1987 the Villinger family from Waiblingen acquired a majority stake. Ottmar Gauß becomes managing director in Vaihingen. In 2005 the Villinger family took over all shares. A special edition is being published to mark its 175th anniversary.
