History
The Gazzetta Ufficiale derives from the "Gazzetta Piemontese", the official newspaper of the
Kingdom of Sardinia , which published from 2 August 1814 to 31 December 1859. An earlier Gazzetta Piemontese had been published from 1797 to 1800, but was suspended during the Napoleonic period. Publication resumed with the Restoration and in 1848 the subtitle "Giornale Ufficiale Del Regno" (Official Journal of the Kingdom) was added. This became the Gazzetta Ufficiale del Regno d'Italia on 4 January 1860 and finally, Gazzetta Ufficiale della Repubblica Italiana after the institutional referendum on the form of state held on 2 June 1946.The Gazzetta Piemontese title was revived as an unconnected newspaper in 1867; in 1895 it became the national daily
La Stampa , published inTurin .Project AU.G.U.STO. (Automazione Gazzetta Ufficiale Storica) will make the entire collection of Gazzetta Ufficiale del Regno d'Italia available free of charge online.
