Ostrauer Volksblatt ('Ostrava People's Paper'), later renamed Der Kampf ('The Struggle'), was a German-language socialist newspaper published in Austria, later Czechoslovakia. It was founded as a weekly newspaper by the social democratic association in Moravská Ostrava (today a district of Ostrava).

The paper was printed by Verlag Wilhelm Niessner in Brünn, from 1917 it was printed by Verlag Josef Herrman in Moravian Ostrava.

In 1919 it became a regional organ of the German Social Democratic Workers Party in the Czechoslovak Republic.

In March 1921 it was converted into a daily newspaper, renamed 'Der Kampf'. It was now a regional organ of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia for Moravia and Silesia. It was now printed from Brünn/Brno. After a year, the newspaper moved to Liberec. The publication was discontinued in 1922.
