History[edit]

The Fränkischer Tag goes back to the time of the Prince-Bishopric of Bamberg, in the printing house of the Kronacher printer Georg Andreas Gertner. The first Bamberg newspaper came out in 1754. The newspaper was often unlabelled. In 1806 Napoleon had his declaration of war against Prussia printed in the newspaper. In 1808, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's Magnum Opus The Phenomenology of the Mind was printed. the local Bamberg newspaper started publishing in Octavo in 1834.
