Kerndt Brothers Savings Bank is a community bank located in Lansing, Allamakee County, Iowa. Lansing is located in northeast Iowa on the banks of the Mississippi River with a population of approximately 1,000. It is primarily an agriculturally driven economy with a growing trend in tourism. Kerndt Brothers Savings Bank has been a closely held family bank since 1856. Those were the days of private banks and it was not incorporated as a state bank until 1908. A new branch office in neighboring Harpers Ferry, Iowa, was built in 1972.

In 1979, Kerndt Bank Services, Inc., a one-bank holding company, was formed to own Kerndt Brothers Savings Bank. In 1988, the holding company purchased an insurance agency in Lansing so that a full line of insurance services, as well as banking services, could be offered.

In October, 2001, Kerndt Bank Services, Inc., purchased Farmers Savings Bank of West Union and Clermont, Iowa, thus, expanding its locations of financial services offered to nearby Fayette County. Within two years of this purchase, it became apparent that a merger of the Farmers Savings Bank with Kerndt Brothers Savings Bank would be most advantageous to all of its bank customers. Effective with the merger on August 8, 2003 , bank customers can transact business at any of the four locations, Lansing, Harpers Ferry, West Union or Clermont. In addition, new services have been added. We are now able to offer image statements, E-Z phone voice access, and online banking. To access online banking click on the online banking link above.
