Kuffner Observatory
The Kuffner Planetarium offers astronomic guided tours. Weather-permitting, one can look at the stars with the large telescope constructed in the year 1889.
Guided tours suitable for children 6 years and up Every Saturdays at 5pm, the Kuffner Planetarium offers family days. These guided tours consist of a slide show and the viewing of the large telescope and, weather permitting, an astronomic observation.
Guided tours take place during all weather situations. Observations with the telescope are only possible during good weather.
