The new company was turned into a Kommanditselskab structure and in October 1874 the Jydsk Handels- og Landbrugsbank A/S company was formed with Christian Ludvig Kier as president until 1876 when it became a subsidiary of the Copenhagen Business Bank, under its own name for many years, effectively functioning as a branch.
Jydsk Handels- og Landbrugsbank was situated on Lille Torv in Aarhus, in a building drawn by architect Sophus Frederik Kühnel, constructed in 1899–1900 and listed in 1996 by the Danish Heritage Agency.
The building is mainly inspired by Italian renaissance architecture with elements of the national romantic style.
[3] The building is in 3 floors and sits on an inwardly leaning base of quarried granite ashlar topped with a bright profile strip.
The interior features a marble stairwell with wrought iron railing and patterned masonry.
