    Howdy, I visited this mountain as part of my dwarf mountain tour series: My goal is to climb every mountain in the Vienna Woods -> komoot.de/collection/2517195/-zwergbergtouren-im-wienerwald

    The Leopold Figl Observatory for Astrophysics has been used for astronomical research since 1970. The focus is particularly on long-term programs that cannot be carried out at large observatories. Internships for students and public tours are also offered there.

    The largest reflector telescope in Austria is located here.
    The observatory can be visited on the "open day" (for dates see foa.univie.ac.at/aktuelles/). As part of a guided tour, the sun can be observed with a special telescope in good weather. Nocturnal observations are not possible for visitors.
    Special tours on other dates are also organized for larger groups.
