The newspaper was first published as the
Oberrheinische Nachrichten on 25 April 1914 in conjunction with the opposition movement formed by
Wilhelm Beck against the government of
Leopold Freiherr von Imhof, the
Governor of Liechtenstein. It primarily advocated for the expansion of welfare, broader voting rights and a Liechtensteiner head of state, as Imhof was Austrian. When the
Christian-Social People's Party was founded in 1918, the newspaper became the official newspaper of the party. On 3 September 1924, the newspaper was renamed to ''Liechtensteiner Nachrichten. In January 1936, Christian-Social People's Party and
Liechtenstein Homeland Service merged to form the
Patriotic Union and the newspaper was subsequently dissolved and succeeded by the
Liechtensteiner Vaterland. == List of editors (1914–1936) ==
