Narodni list is an independent Croatian weekly newspaper published in Zadar, founded in 1862, making it the oldest living newspaper in Croatia.
The newspaper was started in 1862, making it the oldest living newspaper in Croatia, and a part of Croatian cultural history. The first issue of Narodni list was published on March 1st 1862, as a Croatian-language part of the Italian-language newspaper Il Nazionale. Since 1876, Narodni list is published entirely in Croatian language, playing an important role in unification of Dalmatia and Croatia.
From 1920 to 1946 Narodni list was not published due to Italian fascist government of Zadar and Dalmatia. After the war, Narodni list starts publishing again. At the time there was another Narodni list, daily newspaper published in Zagreb, so the Zadar newspaper was forced to briefly change the name to Glas Zadra. After the newspaper from Zagreb ceased to exist, Narodni list recovered its name.
