The Clausthal Mint was a mint that existed from 1617 to 1849 in the Clausthal-Zellerfeld district of Clausthal in a total of three different establishments on Osteröder Straße. The last building used is still called the Old Mint of Clausthal. It was built in 1726 and from 1849, when the mint was moved to Hanover, it was used as the headquarters of the management of the Upper Harz Mining and Metallurgical Works, until the Old Mint was converted into a student dormitory in 1950. Due to two fires and organizational changes in the mint operation, three operating periods can be delineated. Mint lords included the Dukes of Brunswick-Lüneburg, the Electors of Hanover and King Jérôme Bonaparte of Westphalia.
