Auktionsgalerie am Hofgarten is a family-run auction house in Bayreuth, Germany, led by Hannelore Rothenbücher e.K. With around 30 years of experience in art and antiques auctions, the business serves buyers and sellers through regular sales, expert guidance, and illustrated catalogues. Its auctions feature a broad range of objects, including Asian art, ceramics, glass, silver, porcelain, jewellery, watches, paintings, prints, furniture, rugs, decorative arts, and antique weapons.

Prospective buyers can inspect items at the auction house before each sale and bid in person, by telephone, in writing, or online. The gallery also welcomes consignments from individuals, collections, and estates. Sellers can arrange an appointment, including an on-site viewing, to discuss market conditions and agree on estimates or minimum prices. Consigned items are described and photographed for the catalogue, with proceeds generally paid about four weeks after the auction. Auktionsgalerie am Hofgarten provides practical support throughout the auction process, from presenting and evaluating objects to coordinating bidding, payment, collection, and shipping arrangements.
