A living piece of astronomical history in the city

Built in the 18th century, this observatory offers a unique experience during its Open Day events. Visitors can enjoy detailed explanations from guides and view photographic materials from before and after World War II. You can also learn about how the building has been preserved and restored over the years. I never expected to find such a hidden gem in the heart of Mannheim. The highlight of this place is undoubtedly the observation deck at the top, where you can enjoy a stunning panoramic view not only of Mannheim but also of the surrounding cities! Open Days seem to be held several times a year, so be sure to check the website for Open Day and guided tour schedules. I highly recommend visiting! 📍 Sternwarte Mannheim
