Heritage

Georgia’s oldest active newspaper

The paper began in 1785 as the weekly Augusta Gazette, two years after the end of the American Revolutionary War. It became Augusta’s first daily in 1837 and has covered the city ever since.

The Georgia Press Association has long ranked it among the state’s best dailies and gave it its top General Excellence award in 2011. Today it is part of the USA Today network.

That long record is why a feature on augustachronicle.com is a credible signal for customers, partners and search engines in the region.
