    I've driven it around a thousand times, but it's always nice.

      The Aufseßhöflein in Bamberg, a town in the Bavarian administrative district of Upper Franconia, was built from 1723 to 1728. The former pleasure palace is a protected architectural monument. The Baroque garden seat was built by Johann Dientzenhofer for Philipp Friedrich von Aufseß on the site of a previous building that was still surrounded by lakes. Costly Rococo-style interiors created financial bottlenecks that led to a creeping decline from around 1760 onwards. First leased to former servants of the Aufseß and devastated during the Napoleonic wars, it was sold in 1839 to a gardener family. The property was converted into agricultural land, the ponds were drained, the hall to the hayloft and chicken coop. In the 19th and 20th centuries, railroad tracks were passed close to the property. In 1941, a planned demolition in favor of a line upgrade provoked protests among the population. When it was added to the list of monuments in 1953, the estate was no longer considered a monument "without saving a significant financial outlay". Around 2000, the last descendant of the gardener had to leave the dilapidated building for decades. It was followed by an emergency backup and several futile attempts to rescue before the property was restored by new owners in the years 2012 to 2015 in an exemplary manner.
