Päevaleht was a newspaper published between 1905 and 1940 in Estonia.
History and profile
The first issue of Päevaleht was published on 16 December 1905 in Tallinn. In 1924, they expanded to a new building.
Following the Soviet occupation, the newspaper was replaced by Noorte Hääl (published 1940–1941 and 1944–1990) in 1940. The last regular issue was printed on 26 July 1940.
When the German forces took Tallinn in 1941, they tried to restart publishing Päevaleht. However, the first issue published on 29 August was also the last one.
On 1 February 1990, the newspaper Noorte Hääl became Päevaleht once again.
The paper was digitized by the National Library of Estonia.
