Our telescope
The observatory offers the main telescope located on the roof of the building, while upstairs is the work drive of the Observatory together with an office that is equipped with adequate furniture and equipment (the equipment is not directly connected to the telescope).
The telescope space is covered with a movable roof. During the use of the telescope, the roof moves aside to allow unobstructed use of the telescope and observing the celestial bodies. In addition to the main fixed telescope, located on the roof of the building, the observatory also has three portable field telescopes.
