April 2019 The history of Tamedia The Tages-Anzeiger, successfully founded in 1893 The first newspapers – from today’s perspective – published at the beginning of the 17th century. In 1893, Wilhelm Girardet, a publisher, sets up the Tages-Anzeiger together with editor Fritz Walz. On 2 March, the first issue is published, the 46’000 copies distributed free of charge for one month. After this period, still 25’000 substribers are counted. A subscription costs 50 rappen a month at that time. The history of Tamedia Growth in the 20th century and initial public offering The company continues to grow through takeovers – like for example 1933 the Schweizer Familie –and in- house developments – like for example 1987 the SonntagsZeitung. The printing facility in Zurich opens in 1984, the one in Lausanne in 1989, and Berne in 2005. On 2 October 2000, the company goes public with a new name, Tamedia AG.
