A home for in-depth journalism and photography

From humble beginnings in 2017, Point.51 has become a recognised home for in-depth journalism and original photography that explores a complex and ever-changing Europe. From young Spaniards struggling to forge careers amid economic stagnation, to Scottish nationalists dreaming of independence, and Cuban asylum seekers living in Serbia, Point.51 challenges and inspires readers – while leaving them to make up their own minds on the issues that matter.

 

 

Stories from across Europe

Our in-depth reporting and photography journeys far and wide, from Portugal's Atlantic coast, to the Swedish archipelago, and the boundary between Europe and Asia. Drawing upon local knowledge – the history, the culture, the language – our writers and photographers cover stories in towns, cities, and the often-forgotten places in between. Point.51 explores the people and places shaping the landscape of contemporary Europe – in and out of the news.

 

 

Documentary photography that stays with you

Recognised for original documentary photography that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with our in-depth journalism, Point.51’s dedicated team of picture editors work closely with photographers across Europe. Taking readers to places both familiar and unfamiliar, our photography looks beyond the headlines and the easy stereotypes to cover stories as diverse as the lives of Albanian shepherds, British migrants in Bulgaria, and the citizens of a former “secret” city in European Russia.

 

 

Reader funded, advert free

Published in print twice a year, Point.51 is funded by our dedicated and passionate readers – and is entirely advertising-free. Each issue brings together 136 pages of carefully-crafted and beautifully laid out journalism and photography for readers of all ages and backgrounds – now and in the future.
