Der Hauptstadtbrief(Letter from the Capital) is a monthly information and monitoring service from Berlin targeted at “decision-makers and opinion leaders” in politics and business. Its first edition came out in autumn 1999, as Germany’s Bundestag (Lower House of Parliament) and federal government moved from Bonn to Berlin. To reach a wider readership, the magazine comes out several times a year as a special supplement in major newspapers such as the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) and Die Welt.
