Der Tagesspiegel
Der Tagesspiegel, the voice of Berlin and Germany.
People who want to know what’s happening in Berlin and Germany read Der Tagesspiegel. The paper features daily background and analysis on politics, business and culture – direct from the German capital.
For over 60 years now, readers and colleagues in the industry have valued the thoroughly researched articles, the liberal reporting mindset and the critical commentary in Der Tagesspiegel.
The maiden issue was printed on September 27, 1945. Just a short time later, the paper’s motto – “Rerum cognoscere causas”, which roughly translates as “Getting to the bottom of things” – was displayed on the front page for the first time.
Der Tagesspiegel has remained true to this credo through to the present day. Der Tagesspiegel is one of the most frequently cited newspapers in Germany and is known at home and abroad as the voice of the German capital.
