history

Historically, the properties on Mainzer Landstrasse 16-24 were built on by individual buildings. The previous owners were often bankers. These included Benedict Goldschmidt , Albert (1805–1880) and Friedrich Mumm von Schwarzenstein , Theodor Stern and Wilhelm Peter Metzler . The Moritz Adolph Ellissen bank was at number 24 until 1908 , and the banker's widows Lina Rothschild and Ina Goldschmidt lived at number 18 until 1900. After the destruction of the Second World War , the bank for public services acquired the property. In 1964, the BfG inaugurated its headquarters on the property. As the bank grew, the head office moved into the newly built BfG high-rise and the building at Mainzer Landstrasse 16–24 was used as the headquarters of the Frankfurt branch of the BfG. During the 1980s the property was sold to a Swedish group of investors who built the Trianon there. The BfG was then the first tenant (half of the building).
