History
Preliminary planning
Its plannings began in the early 1950s, when the communities of Oker, Bündheim, and Bad Harzburg struggled with increasing traffic on their two-lane streets B 4 and B 6. A first draft from a planning office in Brunswick in April 1953 proposed the recent pathway from Vienenburg east of the Radau river through the city. A second proposal from Landkreis Wolfenbüttel included a different route over the Langenberg and east of Harlingerode, which however was rejected twice. The actual construction of the street began in 1971, when the southern part of the four-lane street in Bad Harzburg was under construction and finished on 18 December 1971. The A 369 itself was finished in 1972. Even though the anticipated name was A 369, the highway was finally dedicated as A 395 after the old plannings of the A 36 were discarded.A 395
Between 1982 and 1987, the four-lane Bundesstraße 6 was constructed between Goslar and the A 395, leading to the Bad Harzburg intersection being added to the highway.After German Peaceful Revolution and reunification of Germany around 1990, the eastern part of the Bundesstraße 6 was constructed from Vienenburg to Bernburg (Saale) between 1997 and 2011. After the Vienenburg intersection was finished in 2001, the A 395 between this junction and the Bad Harzburg intersection was downgraded to a Bundesstraße in order to maintain a consistent numbering, now being a simple dual carriageway.
