NORD/LB Brunswick

The main office of NORD/LB and Braunschweigische Landessparkasse at Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz in Braunschweig comprises three building parts: the historical railway station, known as the Ottmerbau, that was built in 1845 based on a design by Carl Theodor Ottmer and used as a railway station until 1960; the former computer centre Haus Bürgerpark; and the office block with its associated low-rise buildings that was finished in 1975.

The external areas surrounding the buildings are laid out as green areas and the entire plot, with a size of 28,000 square metres, is surrounded by the Oker river and is therefore referred to as the "island".

After NORD/LB was formed in 1970 (merger of Niedersächsische Landesbank, Braunschweigische Staatsbank, Hannoversche Landeskreditanstalt and Niedersächsische Wohnungskreditanstalt-Stadtschaft), and since the Braunschweigische Landessparkasse was set up in 2008, the Ottmerbau has been used for Private Banking consultation and the Haus Bürgerpark as a branch. The office block serves as an administrative building.
