]]>Münster gained the status of a Großstadt (major city) with more than 100,000 inhabitants in 1915.Currently there are 300,000people living in the city, with about 48,500 students, only some of whom are recorded in the official population statistics as having their primary residence in Münster.
In 793, Charlemagne sent out Ludger as a missionary to evangelise the Münsterland. In 797, Ludger founded a school that later became the Cathedral School.Gymnasium Paulinum traces its history back to the school.Ludger was ordained as the first bishop of Münster. The first cathedral was completed by 850.The combination of ford and crossroad, market place, episcopal administrative centre, library and school, established Münster as an important centre.In 1040, Heinrich III became the first king of Germany to visit Münster.
In 1534, the Anabaptists led by John of Leiden, took power in the Münster Rebellion and founded a democratic proto-socialistic state. They claimed all property, burned all books except the Bible, and called it the “New Jerusalem”. John of Leiden believed he would lead the elect from Münster to capture the entire world and purify it of evil with the sword in preparation for the Second Coming of Christ and the beginning of the Millennium. They went so far as to require all citizens to be naked as preparation for the Second Coming. However, the town was recaptured in 1535; the Anabaptists were tortured to death, their corpses were exhibited in metal baskets (often confused with cages), which can still be seen hanging from the Tower of St. Lambert’s steeple.
Part of the signing of the Peace of Westphalia of 1648 was held in Münster.This ended the Thirty Years’ War and the Eighty Years’ War. It also guaranteed the future of the prince-bishop and the diocese; the area was to be exclusively Roman Catholic.

]]>The paid circulation of all regional imprints in 2012 was 294,251 (excluding Bietigheimer Zeitung and Eberbacher Zeitung), while the paid circulation of the Südwest Presse newspaper was 59,959. The distribution area of Ulm, Neu-Ulm and Alb-Donau-Kreis overlaps with several other dailies, including Schwäbischen Zeitung, the Augsburger Allgemeinen and the Stuttgarter Nachrichten, and so there is a competitive relationship despite their correspondent and economic co-operation, detailed below. Südwest Presse, along with most of its sister newspapers, is printed in Rhenish format. A few of the smaller affiliated newspapers use Berliner style.
The main office of Neue Pressegesellschaft in Ulm issues Südwest Presse-produced national and regional stories for a large number of local publishers. The sections produced are Internationale und Bundes-Politik (international and federal politics), Wirtschaft (economy), Südwest-Umschau (Southwestern sights), Feuilleton (features), Kulturspiegel (cultural mirror), Brennpunkt (focus), Blick in die Welt (worldview), überregionaler Sport (sports in the region), Wochenendbeilage (weekend supplement), and Sonderveröffentlichungen (Special publications). Associated newspapers may use and adapt any of these sections in their own daily newspaper, which they combine with their own local news. The Südwest Presse daily prints almost all of these sections. It is one of the only local newspapers that operates (partly with other newspapers) its own correspondent offices (for instance, in Berlin, Moscow, Washington DC, Paris, London, Rome, and Stuttgart). A total of 18 publishers are behind the correspondent group, located in a region from Bad Mergentheim in the north to Villingen-Schwenningen in the southwest.

]]>The post Stuttgarter Zeitung German Newspaper appeared first on Epaper Online.
]]>It was first edited on 18 September 1945, just a few months after the end of the Second World War. With northern and central Württemberg being part of the American occupation zone from 1945 to 1949, it was the U.S. Information Control Division that issued the first publishing licence to the editors Josef Eberle, Karl Ackermann and Henry Bernhard during the first years of the paper’s existence. Erich Schairer joined them as co-editor in the fall of 1946. After Schairers death, Eberle remained the editor until 1972. Today, its publishing house is Südwestdeutsche Medien Holding.
It is mainly read in Baden-Württemberg and therefore has a strong local and regional focus, but also has significant supra-regional, national and international sections, covered by separate respective editorial departments.
The paper was awarded the European Newspaper of the Year in the category of regional newspaper by the European Newspapers Congress in 2010.
