Fædrelandet was a National Liberal Danish newspaper published from 1834 to 1882 in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Fædrelandet was established as a weekly journal by Christian Georg Nathan David [da] and Johannes Dam Hage (1800–1837) in 1834.

Orla Lehmann took over the position on 28 March 1841 but was replaced by Carl Ploug after being placed under censorship.

After Denmark's devastating defeat in the Second Schleswig War, it was in opposition to Venstre, politically as well as literally, explicitly supporting Højre from 1870.

Antonio Leigh-Smith succeeded Ploug as editor-in-chief in 1881 but the newspaper closed the following year.
