The Lëtzebuerger Journal (Luxembourgish pronunciation: [ˈlətsəbuəjɐ ˈʒuʁnɑl], lit.
[1] Lëtzebuerger Journal was first published on 5 April 1948,[2] replacing the Obermosel-Zeitung and l'Unio'n, which ceased publication the same year.
[7] However, due to its close ties to the Democratic Party, Luxembourg's third largest party and a regular coalition partner in government, the Journal's significance was much greater than this circulation would suggest.
[3] The newspaper received €540,421 in annual state press subsidy in 2009.
[9] It ceased its print publication on 31 December 2020 and became an Online magazine on 1 January 2021 with a focus on Slow journalism and all of its written articles published in German, French and English.
