The German-American Bank is a historic commercial building at Franklin and Main Streets in Altus, Arkansas. It is a two-story masonry structure, built out of red brick with a stone foundation and trim. It has an angled store entrance at the corner, sheltered by an overhang with a dentillated cornice and supported by a round column. Windows on the second level are set in segmented-arch openings, and the flat roof is obscured by a raised brick parapet. Built in 1905, it is Altus' finest example of commercial Italianate architecture. ^[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. ^[1]
