History
The paper was founded in 1850 as the Täglicher Straßenanzeiger (daily street advertisement). From 1854 a redaction developed political, business, cultural and local news. The name was changed to Mainzer Anzeiger. After World War I, the paper developed to a regionally read daily. The publication house was destroyed in the Air raid on 27 February 1945. In the fall of 1945, a paper was founded named Neuer Mainzer Anzeiger, changed once more in May 1947 to Allgemeine Zeitung.[1][2]
