Nordjyske is a daily regional newspaper published in the North Jutland Region of Denmark. It is Denmark's second oldest newspaper.

History and profile

The newspaper was founded in 1767[1] as Nyttige og fornøyelige Jydske Efterretninger. In 1827, it merged with Aalborg's second newspaper Aalborgs Stifts Adresse-Avis. The paper was known as Aalborg Stiftstidende until 1999, when it was rebranded to Nordjyske Stiftstidende to create a broader geographical appeal. In 2017 the name was shortened to just Nordjyske.

The publisher of Nordjyske is the Det Nordjyske Mediehus.[2] The paper is published in broadsheet format.[3] It has no political affiliation and has a liberal stance.[1][4] The paper was also described as having a right-wing tradition in a 2006 study.[5]

Nordjyske Stiftstidende has its headquarters in Aalborg.[4] The paper now serves the whole of Vendsyssel and most of Himmerland and has local editions in Aalborg, Hjørring, Hobro, Frederikshavn, Fjerritslev, Skagen and Brønderslev.[6]
