On 28 November 1814, The Times of London made history as the first newspaper to be printed using automatic, steam-powered presses, a groundbreaking invention by German pioneers Friedrich Koenig and Andreas Friedrich Bauer.
This technological marvel drastically increased printing efficiency, enabling mass production and making newspapers affordable and accessible to a wider audience.
The innovation not only transformed the publishing industry but also catalysed the democratisation of information, heralding a new era of public engagement with the press.
