Former Deutsch-Asiatische Bank in Qingdao, Colonial bank building in central Qingdao, China

The three-story stone and brick structure at 294 Szechuen Road features arched windows, pronounced cornices, and European architectural elements throughout its facade.

The Deutsch-Asiatische Bank opened this branch in 1901 during German colonial rule, serving as a financial hub for international trade until its nationalization in 1945.

The building represents the fusion of German banking architecture with Chinese construction methods, marking a period of extensive foreign influence in Qingdao's development.

The former bank building stands near the intersection of Szechuen Road and Guangxi Road, within walking distance of several other historical structures from the colonial period.

This structure housed one of only eight branches authorized to issue its own banknotes in Chinese taels and Mexican dollars during the early 20th century.
