It is one of two major minority newspapers published in the Danish-German border region, the other one being Flensborg Avis of the Danish minority in Germany.[1] In addition, it is the only paper published in German in Denmark and in Scandinavia as well as the first German-language paper established in Europe following World War II.[2]

History and profile

Der Nordschleswiger was founded as a weekly newspaper in 1946.[1][2] In 1951 it became daily.[2] The newspaper is published in German[3] and has its own publishing house.[1]

Der Nordschleswiger's headquarter is in Aabenraa.[2] It reflects the voice of German-speaking minority people in Denmark[2] and covers news on events in both Denmark and Germany.[4] Major financial support for the paper comes from the German state.[2]

Currently the paper is published in a print as well as online format. Due to a receding number of print-subscribers and a concurrently growing number of online visitors, the paper will be published only in a digital format from February 2021. However, the online offers will be open to everyone without any costs.

The website of the paper was started in 2007.[2]

Gwyn Nissen is the editor-in-chief of the paper.
