German: '''Buchmarkt''' (stylized as BuchMarkt, English: Book market) is an independent specialist magazine founded in 1966 for the German-language book trade. It is published monthly, usually on the first Tuesday of the month. The subtitle of the magazine is German: Das Ideenmagazin für den Buchhandel (English: The ideas magazine for the book trade).
In 1966, the idea arose to publish an independent specialist magazine for the German-language book trade. On 10 May 1966, Klaus Werner, Eberhardt Dickert and Christian von Zittwitz founded the publishing house German: Junge Edition K. Werner GmbH for this purpose. The name was later changed to German: Buchmarkt Verlag K. Werner GmbH. The first issue was presented in 1966 at the Frankfurt Book Fair.
In the beginning, German: Buchmarkt was published in two editions, but increased every year. In 1967, there were already four issues, in 1968 six, eight the following year, ten in 1970; and since 1971 German: Buchmarkt has been published monthly.
Christian von Zittwitz is now the sole shareholder and in 1997 relocated the company's headquarters from Düsseldorf to Meerbusch-. Since 1998, there is also been an online offer of German: Buchmarkt. In 2006, the magazine celebrated its 40th birthday with an anniversary edition: industry highlights from 40 years of German: Buchmarkt.
In 2009, Christian von Zittwitz was the first journalist ever to receive the golden pin of honor from the Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels.
