The Aufseesianum is a Catholic boarding school with day students in the historic center of Bamberg . It was donated in 1740 by the cathedral capitular Jodokus Freiherr von Aufseß .

location

The Aufseesianum is located in a hollow between the Bamberg Domberg and the former Michelsberg monastery . The Bamberg Way of the Cross leads along the Aufseesianum.

history

Jodocus Bernhard Freiherr von Aufseß bequeathed almost his entire fortune amounting to 300,000 Rhenish guilders for the establishment of a seminar for students from the Bamberg and Würzburg dioceses. As the site for the seminar, he envisaged a plot of land in the Bamberg Aufseesgasse, later named after him (today's Aufseßstraße) between Domberg and Michelsberg. There was previously a pilgrims' hostel on the site that belonged to Michelsberg Monastery. Justus Heinrich Dientzenhofer completed the construction of the Aufseesianum within a year.

The seminar was inaugurated on August 4, 1741 and at that time housed 36 boys, three prefects and the seminar director Friedrich Günther. In the course of secularization , the seminary was dissolved on October 24, 1803. When the Bavarian state government ordered the Bavarian State Government not to dissolve the Aufseesianum shortly afterwards, it had already been cleared. The Aufseesianum was reopened in the school year 1830/1831. The increase in the number of schoolchildren required the expansion into today's three-wing complex between 1873 and 1879. At the end of the Second World War, the house was used as a military hospital from January 1945 and was not used again as a boarding school until September 1946. A two- and three-level business school has also been integrated in the Aufseesianum since 2007 .

Others

A cinematic monument to the Aufseesianum was the Kästner film adaptation of The Flying Classroom (1973), in which Joachim Fuchsberger presented himself as Dr. Bökh even reports on the phone with the real name of the boarding school.
