    The observatory "Johannes Franz" in Bautzen is one of the oldest and largest school observatories in Germany. Since its inauguration in 1872, this facility has had a checkered history. The school observatory is still visited by many groups of children and is valued for its public lectures and special events. The focal point of the facility is the Zeiss planetarium and the two domed buildings with the observation instruments.
