Founded in 1848, the Luxemburger Wort was originally owned by the Catholic Church. It is the Luxembourg's leading daily. Wort.lu, the newspaper's online version, is the country's second most popular website run by a media outlet. It is published by Saint-Paul Luxembourg SA, which was majority-owned by the Archbishopric of Luxembourg until the latter sold its shares to the Belgian media group Mediahuis in April 2020. At the end of 2020 Saint-Paul Luxembourg laid off 71 of its 330 employees.
