Dags-Telegrafen (Danish: Daily Telegraph) was a Danish language conservative newspaper which was published in Copenhagen, Denmark, in the period of 1864–1891.

History and profile

[edit]

Dags-Telegrafen was established by J. Christian Ferslew in Copenhagen in 1864.[1][2] Its first issue appeared on 2 January that year.[3] The paper had a conservative stance and was the first of such newspapers in Denmark.[1] In fact, it was affiliated with the Conservative Party.[4] The paper was headquartered in Copenhagen.[3]

In first half of the 1870s Dags-Telegrafen became one of the best selling newspapers in the country.[1][2] An evening edition of the paper, Nationaltidende, was launched in 1876.[1] Sophus Peter Tromholt published his auroral observations in Dags-Telegrafen[5] which folded on 30 June 1891.[3][4]
