The story of Rapunzel is a German fairy tale that was first published by the Brothers Grimm in 1812 in their collection of folktales called “Children’s and Household Tales” (“Kinder- und Hausmärchen” in German). The Brothers Grimm were Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, who were German academics and collectors of folklore.

However, this fairy tale existed in oral tradition before it was written down by the Brothers Grimm. The earliest known version dates back to the 17th century and was published by Italian writer Giambattista Basile in his collection of fairy tales titled “Pentamerone.”

While the Brothers Grimm are credited with popularizing the story of Rapunzel and making it widely known, the exact author and origin of the story are unknown, and it is believed to have evolved through oral tradition.
