Answer» What is Südwestfunk mean? The Southern part of Germany was split at the end of World War II into two occupation zones, an American and a French one. In Bavaria and in Württemberg-Baden, Radio München (Munich) and Radio Stuttgart went on air in 1945. In the next years, Radio München was transformed to a Bavarian broadcaster, and in Germany's South West, two public broadcasting corporations started and produced radio and (subsequent) television programs up to their merger in 1998: Südwestfunk, SWF, in the former French zone, founded in 1946, andSüddeutscher Rundfunk, called "Südfunk", short SDR, founded in 1949.The merger of 1998 in the two German States of Baden-Württemberg and Rhineland-Palatinate made SDR and SWF the precursors of Südwestrundfunk SWR. The German word Rundfunk means broadcasting (corporation), and the ending "-funk" in Südwestfunk and Südfunk is short for Rundfunk, or means 'radio (program)'. reference |
