history

The traditional predecessor bank, Bankhaus von der Heydt-Kersten & Söhne , was based in Elberfeld (now part of Wuppertal ) and was taken over by Berlin-based Commerz- und Privatbank in 1932 . In 1970 the bank was merged with the regional branch of Commerzbank, the corporate shell was then acquired in 2005 by today's bank as von der Heydt-Kersten and reopened under the current name as Bankhaus von der Heydt in Munich with a focus on asset servicing. The bank is located in a listed building at 3 Widenmayerstraße .

The bank can look back on a long and varied history. The trade in linen, cotton and silk was accompanied by money exchange and exchange transactions. The bank's business relationships extended to Paris, Lyon, Liège and Amsterdam. Over time, the typical banking tasks came more and more to the fore and replaced the trade in goods.

In 1794 Daniel Heinrich von der Heydt married into the Kersten family and took a stake in the bank. From July 1, 1827, the company was called “von der Heydt-Kersten & Sons”. In the great industrial start-ups of the 19th century - in the coal and steel sector, in railway construction, in the textile industry and wholesale trade - the von der Heydt bank acted as financier, co-partner and as an issuer when going public.

In the first third of the 20th century, Commerzbank took over the limited partnership capital of the bank, which, however, continued to be managed by personally liable partners - until 1943 also by a member of the von der Heydt family. In the second half of the 20th century, the bank shifted its focus to business with wealthy private customers. Von der Heydt-Kersten & Sons played an important role in fund management.
