Journal de Bruxelles (French pronunciation: [ʒuʁnal də bʁysɛl]) was a Belgian newspaper, printed 1841-1926 (with publication suspended under the German occupation of Belgium during World War I). It was one of the leading dailies in late 19th and early 20th-century Brussels, and was aligned with the Catholic interest in public affairs.[1]
Dieudonné Stas founded the newspaper in Liège in 1820 under the title Courrier de la Meuse, but moved it to Brussels under the new title Journal de Bruxelles in 1841.[2] Stas retired in 1856, when management was taken over by Paul Nève, who ran the newspaper until 1862.[3]
