The journal was established in 1952 under the title Zeitschrift für Ostforschung (Journal for Research on the East) with Hermann Aubin, Herbert Schlenger, and Erich Keyser as editors.[2] Until 1969, the journal was published by Elwert Verlag, but moved in 1994 to the Herder-Institut, obtaining its current name. Since 2017 the journal is also published with its English parallel title.[3]

The journal covers research on the history and culture of Poland, Slovakia, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and the Russian enclave Kaliningrad. Besides scientific essays and miscellanea it also contains reviews and research reports. Furthermore, up to two of the four annual issues are guest-edited special issues.
