Lokalblatt is created and maintained by an independent developer based in Zurich, Switzerland. We are not affiliated with any of the news sources we feature, and all original news content remains the property of its publishers.
Lokalblatt aggregates news from publicly available sources, including:
We do not modify or claim ownership over the original articles. Instead, we provide AI-generated simplified versions for educational purposes.
Lokalblatt uses AI models to adjust vocabulary, simplify sentence structures, and condense articles while preserving their core meaning. This process helps German learners engage with real-world news in a more accessible format.
The news articles on Lokalblatt are automatically simplified using AI to help German learners. While we strive for accuracy, AI-generated content may contain minor grammatical errors, slight alterations in sentence structure, or differences in phrasing from the original article.
For full context and accuracy, you can always find the original article linked at the top of each article on our site.
