Stern (English "Star") is a weekly news magazine published in Germany. It was founded in 1948 by Henri Nannen, and is currently published by Gruner und Jahr, a subsidiary of Bertelsmann AG. In February 2004, its print run was 1.07 million copies.

Internationally, it is most famous for publishing the Hitler diaries in 1983. Soon after their publication, they were revealed by scientific testing to be forged. This led to the resignation of the magazine's editors and a major scandal that is still seen as a low point in German journalism.

Stern is known more for its excellent photographic coverage of stories than for the quality of its text. It is considered intellectually inferior to its main rival, Der Spiegel.
