Les Dernières Nouvelles d'Alsace, commonly known as DNA, is a regional daily French newspaper covering the Alsace region. It was created in November 1877 (Elsässische Neueste Nachrichten) by Heinrich Ludwig Kayser.

It is part of East Burgundy group Rhone Alpes (EBRA), formerly France or East Media Group Est Républicain. Its headquarters is located at 17 rue de la Nuée-Bleue in Strasbourg since July 13, 1871.

Its daily circulation in December 2005 was 208,641 copies, 85% of subscriptions, making it the first newspaper in Alsace. It includes 18 local editions which is a record for a zone of restricted diffusion. The newspaper is also published in German (Hochdeutsch, the Alsatian dialect is not a written language) for the Alsatians German (about 10% prints).
