Ein großes Glasgebäude bei Nacht. — Der im Juni 2002 eröffnete Hauptsitz der NORD/LB in Hannover.

Nord/LB’s distinctive headquarters on Friedrichswall opened in 2002. The building has space for around 1,500 employees on 17 floors. It was designed by Behnisch, Behnisch & Partner and won the Niedersächsischer Staatspreis für Architektur, a state-sponsored architecture prize, in its opening year. The office complex includes retail shops and restaurants and an inner courtyard with three small ponds.

Nord/LB has a heritage dating back centuries. Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale was formed in 1970 by the merger of four forerunner institutions: Braunschweigische Staatsbank (founded in 1765), Hannoversche Landeskreditanstalt (founded in 1840), Niedersächsische Landesbank Girozentrale (founded in 1917) and Niedersächsische Wohnungskreditanstalt Stadtschaft (founded in 1918). Under a state agreement between Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt in 1992, Nord/LB also assumed the duties of a state bank for Saxony-Anhalt.
