History

The Sparkasse Mittelholstein was created in 1823 under the name Spar- und Leih-Kasse in Rendsburg as a foundation savings bank. The foundation's capital was 1,500 Mark courant. The founder was Johann Georg Röhling.

In 1847, another predecessor institute was founded, the Spar- und Leihcasse in Nortorf. In 1979 it merged with the Verbandssparkasse Nortorf to create Sparkasse Nortorf. In 1862, the Hademarscher Spar- und Leihcasse - Verein, the third predecessor institute was created. It was converted in 1899 into a public limited company and thus forms the origin of the present form of the company.

In 1973, the Hademarscher Spar- und Leihcasse AG merged with the Kirchspiel Spar- und Leihkasse zu Hanerau to Sparkasse Hanerau-Hademarschen AG. This was the first savings bank as a joint-stock company in the Federal Republic of Germany.

The current institute was founded in 1991. In 2007, the takeover of the public legally Sparkasse Büdelsdorf took place. The city Büdelsdorf, as a sponsor of the former Sparkasse Büdelsdorf, received in return shares of the Sparkasse Mittelholstein AG and has since participated in their share capital. [4]

On 1 July 2017, retroactively to 1 January 2017, the Sparkasse Mittelholstein merged with Sparkasse Hennstedt-Wesselburen. [5]
