Discover the beauty of the cosmos in the largest and oldest public observatory in Germany!

See the sky over Berlin with different eyes and experience the fascination of astronomy with a visit to the Archenhold-Sternwarte in the middle of Treptower Park. You’ll be excited to see what the night sky over Berlin has to offer when you look deep into the cosmos with the »Cassegrain reflecting telescope«. Take a look at planets and the moon in fascinating detail, as well as »deep sky objects« such as stars, nebulae and galaxies. Our experts will answer your questions during the observation and share exciting information about the celestial bodies, as well as the technology and history of the instruments. Smaller telescopes are also available for observation in the open area.

Plan your visit flexibly within the 3-hour time slot booked, and discover the beauty of the sky over Berlin in the largest and oldest public observatory in Germany. If the weather is unfavourable, you can enjoy the artificial starry sky in the Kleinplanetarium.

Please note that the event will partly take place in unheated rooms or in the outdoors. Therefore, please remember to bring warm clothing.
