History
DN was founded by Rudolf Wall. The first issue was published on 23 December 1864. The format was completely changed from the classic broadsheet to tabloid on 5 October 2004.
Dagens Nyheter operated from the so-called 'DN-skrapan' (the DN-skyscraper) in Sweden. This was completed in 1964 and was designed by architect Paul Hedqvist. It is 84 metres (276 ft.) tall and has 27 floors, none of which are underground.
In 1996 the entire enterprise moved to its current location on Gjörwellsgatan, which is adjacent to the old ‘DN-skrapan’. The newspaper Expressen is also located in this building.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history is always the same the product is always different and the history interests more than the product. More, that is, more. Yes. But if the product was not different the history which is the same would not be more interesting.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“I saw the Arab map.
It resembled a mare shuffling on,
dragging its history like saddlebags,
nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”
—Adonis [Ali Ahmed Said] (b. 1930)
“The history of the world is the record of the weakness, frailty and death of public opinion.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
