The Stefanik ObservatoryOn a vacation 2009 in Prague we find this observatory on a walk nearby where we lived. We didn't take many photos, but here are some: ![]() On the homepage we can read that there was three telescopes in the building. One Cassegran telescope of 370mm, one double Carl Zeiss astrograph and one modern 400mm Meade telescope. ![]() Milan R. Stefanik was an astronomer, he died 1919, nine years before this observatory opened. |
![]() Maybe it's here where the double Zeiss astrograph belongs. ![]() It was very beautiful placed in a park at the hill. ![]() There was also possible to visit the observatory for a guided tour, something we didn't. But if you are nearby, take a look at the homepage when they have it open for visits. ![]() In the park there was a lot of other things to see, not just flowers. They also had an miniature copy of the Eiffel tower. ![]()
