The Groninger Courant was a Dutch newspaper, published in the City of Groningen under four different titles, between 1743 and 1811. The newspaper contained four pages on one folded sheet.

History

[edit]

The newspaper appeared first in 1743 as the Geoctrojeerde Groninger Courant.[1] Later that year it became the Opregte Nieuwe Groninger Courant.[1] In 1748 it continued as the Opregte Groninger Courant.[1]

On 16 July 1773 the paper became the Groninger Courant and was published as such until its publication was ceased on 1 July 1811.[2] Subsequent publications that included the name "Groninger Courant" were no longer related to the original Groninger Courant.
