This article aims to give a brief introduction to the weekly supplement of the Ljubljana newspaper Laibacher Tagblatt. The supplement provided readers with cultural, entertaining but also educational content, with a wealth of pictorial material, as indicated in the title Illustrirtes Unterhaltungsblatt. The distinctly German-oriented supplement, which has remained unaddressed in Slovenian historiography, was published with the same content but with a different headline by different newspapers throughout the monarchy. The aim of the paper is primarily to complement the existing nineteenth-century newspaper picture of the then Slovenian territory, while at the same time confirming its embeddedness in the wider European context and, finally, the strong journalistic competence of the Ljubljana publishers of the time.
