Experience OBSERVATORY

Tuesday at the observatory is reserved for guests of member establishments in the Eggental.

Enjoy a journey into the depths of space away from the everyday hustle and bustle. The "Max Valier" observatory is your gateway to the universe!

Discover cosmic worlds, stars, planets and distant galaxies with our telescopes under a clear night sky.
