history

Sparkasse Bodensee

The Sparkasse Bodensee with its two main offices in Friedrichshafen and Konstanz was created on April 1, 2001 through the merger of the Kreissparkasse Friedrichshafen and the Bezirkssparkasse Überlingen. On January 1, 2002 the Sparkasse Konstanz was accepted. There was a legal dispute over the new name “Sparkasse Bodensee” . The Bezirkssparkasse Reichenau , which is also located on Lake Constance but not involved in the merger, tried to have the naming prohibited by a court of law, as it suggested that the entire Lake Constance region was a business area. The Karlsruhe Higher Regional Court dismissed the action on May 3, 2006.

Predecessor institutes

Several predecessor institutes were merged into Sparkasse Bodensee:

  • Kreissparkasse Friedrichshafen : The "Oberamtssparkasse Tettnang" was founded in 1825. Since 1934 it traded as a Kreissparkasse. As a result of the district reform of 1938, its seat was moved to Friedrichshafen . The later main office in Friedrichshafen was set up in 1921 as a branch of the Oberamtssparkasse Tettnang.
  • District savings bank Überlingen : The municipal savings bank opened in Überlingen in 1836 was expanded into an association savings bank in 1857 , which began operations on January 1, 1858 under the name “Spar- und Waisenkasse Überlingen”. From 1929 on, it operated as the “Bezirkssparkasse”. Except for the statutes and the annual accounts, the documents of the municipal savings bank have been lost.
  • Sparkasse Konstanz : The Sparkasse Konstanz was founded in 1839 as a "private savings bank company". In the course of its dissolution in 1868, its assets and liabilities, together with the documents, were handed over to the municipality of Konstanz for the establishment of a “municipal savings, orphan and loan fund”. On January 4, 1869, the Baden Ministry of the Interior granted approval for this project. The pawnshop, which was opened at the same time, was given up in 1904. Since 1881 the facility operated as “Sparkasse Konstanz” with the subsidiary institutions orphanage, depository and loan facility. On January 1, 1971, the "Sparkasse Konstanz" merged with the "Bezirkssparkasse Meersburg".
  • District savings bank Meersburg : Already in the years 1847 to 1858 a savings and lending bank was operated in Meersburg under guarantee from the municipality, its annual accounts went into the archive of the municipal “savings and orphanage bank Meersburg” founded in 1885. In 1891 this was converted into an association savings bank. On January 1, 1971, it merged with Sparkasse Konstanz and has since been the main branch of Sparkasse Konstanz.

Sparkasse building in Konstanz

The current main building of Sparkasse Bodensee in Konstanz was acquired by the latter in 1997. It was built between 1888 and 1891 in the neo-renaissance style as the seat of the Constance Post Office of the Deutsche Reichspost . The relief heads of the "five continents" above the windows of the mezzanine floor are shaped by colonialism . A Capuchin monastery originally stood on the site of today's Sparkasse building .
