In 2000 Volksbank Vorsfelde eG merged with Volksbank Gifhorn eG into Volksbank Wolfsburg.

In 1910 Gustav Frede founded the Grundbesitzerbank zu Braunschweig eGmbH , which was renamed Grundbesitzer- und Handelsbank eGmbH in 1924 and Volksbank Braunschweig eGmbH in 1941 . In 1943, the Braunschweiger Genossenschaftsbank eGmbH was taken over and in 1959 it merged with the Waren-Kreditgenossenschaft Braunschweig eGmbH .

It merged around 1990 with Volksbank Vorsfelde, which in turn merged into Volksbank Wolfsburg in 2000 together with Volksbank Gifhorn.

On January 25, 1925, the Heßlingen-Rothenfelder Savings and Loan Fund Association eGmbH was founded in Heßlingen . After the village of Heßlingen had merged into the town of the KdF-Wagens, founded in 1938, the name was changed in July 1939 to the savings and loan association eGmbH Stadt des KdF-Wagens , and in 1940 the company was renamed Volksbank eGmbH Stadt des KdF-Wagens . In 1945 the city ​​of the KdF-Wagons was renamed Wolfsburg and its Volksbank was renamed Volksbank Wolfsburg eGmbH . On March 27, 1952, the groundbreaking ceremony took place for the bank building that still exists today in Porschestrasse , which was then under construction , and in December of the same year the bank moved from Goethestrasse to Porschestrasse.
