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.
