Simplicissimus was a satirical German weekly magazine, headquartered in Munich, and founded by Albert Langen in April 1896. It was interrupted by a hiatus from 1944–1954, became a biweekly in 1964, and ceased publication in 1967. It took its name from the protagonist of Grimmelshausen's 1668 novel Der Abenteuerliche Simplicissimus Teutsch.
