Discover the cosmos with experts

The Celtic World at Glauberg, together with the Physics Society, is hosting its 12th Astronomy Night on September 19th from 7:00 pm to 11:00 pm. On this evening, everything in the museum and on the grounds will revolve around the moon, stars, and planets.

Astronomy enthusiasts of all ages, and those who want to become one, can expect a meteorite exhibition, an information point about astronomy, a creative station, and various telescopes for observing planets and stars. Anyone who wishes can also bring their own telescope.

An information stand run by the Physics Society and a creative corner for young stargazers provide entertainment. There, children can build astronomical models and color in astro-themed pictures to their heart's content.

The observatory's telescope trail on the grounds offers fascinating views of the moon and the giant planet Saturn. You can also participate in a special guided tour of the constellations. During this tour, you'll receive tips for navigating the night sky and delve into the captivating stories behind the constellations.

7:30 p.m.: Under the Spell of Black Holes
