L'Aube was a daily newspaper founded by Francisque Gay that was published in France between 1932 and 1951. It presented a Christian Democratic viewpoint. The newspaper struggled in the period before World War II (1939–45), and was closed from 1940 to 1944. After the liberation of France it was relaunched, and at first had considerable success as the organ of the Popular Republican Movement.With changes in the political mood in the post-war period it went into decline and was forced to close in 1951.
