HISTORY

Denver Savings Bank is an aggressive “ON THE GROW” small town bank that offers all the modern services available at larger banks. 

With capital of only $15,000, the Denver Savings Bank was organized January 2, 1902, by Henry Graening, J.F. Cass, William Milius, H.C. Stumme, J.Kelling, H.C. Matthias, John Bruns and Henry Steege. H.C.Wente was appointed president. 

A new bank was built in 1968 at 121 S. State Street and in 2001 a 1500 square foot addition extended the bank to the north and the interior of the bank was completely remodeled just in time to celebrate its 100th birthday on January 2, 2002.

ONE HUNDRED YEARS – ONE NAME! 

During the 100 years since the bank’s beginning, only five men have served as president.  J.C. Wente, J.W. Stumme, Dr. Ernest H Stumme and Paul Buenneke, who remained president until January 1999 when he and Robert Buenneke sold the bank to PSB Corporation, a bank holding company that also owns People Savings Bank of Wellsburg, and First State Bank of Sumner.  The sale of the bank left all officers and employees intact, with Dennis R Brandt becoming the new, and still current president.
