    As already described, the Astropeiler can be visited on Sundays at 2 p.m. in the summer months (May to October). This is a guided tour with lectures that cost €5 and last about 2 hours. The owner is now the NRW Foundation, which has also renovated the direction finder. There are four mirrors of different sizes and conditions on the whole site. More information about the story and so on can be found at: astropeiler.de/radioteleskop-astropeiler-stockert

      Many say it is the radio telescope Effelsberg, but the latter is in a hollow, so it is not visible from a distance. Stockert's Astropeiler Stockert stands on the top of the Stockert and you can see him from far away.

        Good view of the Stockert astropiler. During the corona pandemic, the site may not be entered (as of January 31, 2021)
