About

Saarländischer Rundfunk (SR) is the public broadcasting institution of Saarland, headquartered at the historic Halberg in Saarbrücken. Founded on January 1, 1957, SR evolved from earlier regional stations such as Reichssender Saarbrücken and Radio Saarbrücken. As a member of the ARD consortium, SR delivers radio, television, and online content tailored to Saarland’s cultural and linguistic identity. Its programming includes SR Fernsehen, SR 1 Europawelle, SR 3 Saarlandwelle, and UnserDing, covering news, music, and regional affairs. The Halberg site features modern studios and a virtual green-screen facility, blending tradition with innovation. SR plays a vital role in preserving Saarland’s media autonomy and fostering cross-border dialogue with France and Luxembourg. Under the leadership of Martin Grasmück, it continues to adapt to digital trends while maintaining its public service mission.
