History
editThe 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.
