history
The first traces of settlement can already be seen from Roman times in the form of manors. Later the Franks settled here. The place was first mentioned in 1177. Since the end of the 15th century most of the place was owned by the Christgarten monastery . After this monastery was closed during the Reformation, Aufhausen immediately belonged to the County of Oettingen-Oettingen . In 1711, Prince Albrecht Ernst II of Oettingen-Oettingen sold all of the authority rights over the place to the Ellwangen monastery . It remained under his rule until the end of the Old Kingdom. With the secularization of the Ellwang territory, the place fell to Württemberg . In the Bavarian-Württemberg border treaty of 1810, Aufhausen an der Kessel was assigned to the Kingdom of Bavaria .
The village church was built from 1816 to 1822. On January 1, 1978, the previously independent community of Forheim was incorporated.
