Nordic Copper for almost 100 years of history of German journalism
The Anzeiger-Hochaus in the center of Hannover was built in 1928 by the publisher August Madsack. In the first skyscrapper and the adjoining buildings he accommodated the editorial, publishing and printing house of his “Hannoverschen Anzeiger”.
From 1947 to 1974 the skyscrapper accommodated the news magazine “Der Spiegel” and the weekly magazine “Stern” until the “Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung” was launched in 1949. After Madsack Media Group moved out in 1974, the printing hall was initially used as a “Rotation” club. Today the building accommodates various TV and radio station editorial offices.
