Deutsche Welle GmbH

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the Deutsche Welle company of the 1920s and 30s. For the unconnected international long-wave station of the same name founded in 1953, see Deutsche Welle.

Deutsche Welle GmbH was a publicly licensed, though privately financed, German broadcasting company active during the Weimar era.

History

The company was founded in August 1924 (99 years ago) (1924-08) in Berlin, and was one of the nine broadcasting companies that were functioning during the Weimar Republic, the other eight being regional companies with medium-wave transmissions. However, while the regional companies started operations between 1923 and 1924, Deutsche Welle did not begin broadcasting until 7 January 1926 (97 years ago) (1926-01-07), when it opened a long-wave transmitter (which soon became known as the Deutschlandsender, since its broadcasts could be heard all over Germany) at Königs Wusterhausen near Berlin.[1] A large part of the station's output consisted of the retransmission of material from the regional broadcasting companies; within this framework Deutsche Welle attempted to emphasize educational programming for a nationwide audience.

The far reach of the Deutschlandsender's long-wave transmitter meant that Deutsche Welle's programming could be heard well beyond Germany's borders. In September 1926, the Munich regional station -- the Deutsche Stunde in Bayern -- received feedback from listeners in Amsterdam when its programmes first began to be relayed by the Deutschlandsender.

On 1 January 1933, Deutsche Welle GmbH was officially renamed Deutschlandsender GmbH and given the specific remit of relaying representative programme material from the regional companies to a national audience.
