Diari de Girona ([diˈaɾi ðə ʒiˈɾonə]) is a Catalan daily newspaper, based in Girona, Catalonia.

History and profile

The newspaper was founded in 1943 with the name of Los Sitios, using the equipment confiscated from the newspaper L'Autonomista, owned by the family Rahola. At that time, was the only daily publication of the province of Girona, and the press of the Franco regime in Girona. During the transition to democracy it kept its name until the end of the 70s, when changed to Los Sitios-Diari de Girona, and gradually introduced the Catalan language. Finally, at the beginning of the 80s adopted the current name and a democratic and independent publisher, and became fully running in Catalan language.
