Aufseßhöflein, Pleasure house in northern outskirts of Bamberg, Germany.

Aufseßhöflein is a baroque pleasure house north of Bamberg with a distinctive mansard roof and sandstone loggias. The building divides into a low ground floor and a tall main floor, with the exterior showing elegant proportions and careful architectural detailing.

Johann Dientzenhofer built the garden palace between 1723 and 1728 for Philipp Friedrich von Aufseß on the site of an earlier building still surrounded by ponds. The costly Rococo interior caused financial difficulties and decline from around 1760. It was rented to former Aufseß servants, damaged in the Napoleonic Wars, and sold in 1839 to a gardener's family, who used it for farming and dried up the ponds.

The ballroom, once used as a hayloft and chicken coop, now hosts cultural events and weddings. The name Aufseßhöflein refers to Philipp Friedrich von Aufseß, who commissioned the garden palace; the property later passed to a gardener's family in 1839.

The palace has been open to the public since its 2012–2015 restoration, and cultural events and weddings are regularly held in the ballroom. A representative two-flight outdoor staircase was added during that restoration. The property stands near the railway lines laid out beside it in the 19th century.

The garden was laid out by Johann Dientzenhofer for Philipp Friedrich von Aufseß on the site of an earlier building still surrounded by ponds. Those ponds were drained in the 19th century when a gardener family turned the property into a farm, using the hall as a hayloft and a chicken coop.
