The Historical Newspaper Collection is the result of a project funded bt the German Research Foundation (DFG) entitled "Digitization of complete 17th Century newspapers"

A project of the German Research Foundation (DFG) (May 2013- April 2015)

Between May 2013 and December 2015, the complete collection of 17th century newspapers compiled by the Institute of German Press Research were digitized in the Bremen State and University Library. This work is the foundation of the SuUB Bremen's digital collection "Historical Newspapers", in which the newspapers of the 17th century and other historical newspapers from the library holdings are available online. In the digital collection "Historical Newspapers" we offer free access to select newspapers from the holdings of the Bremen State and University Library. You can find Bremer newspaper titles in the collection "Bremer Zeitungen". The individual newspaper issues are also available for free PDF download.

The 17th-century newspapers available in our collection are partly incomplete. If you have information regarding the location of missing issues, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us..
