At this point, on the balcony of Radebeul, the first building of the observatory was built in 1959. It was a wooden hut that could be driven off on rails. Almost ten years later, the building complex of the new building was inaugurated. In the years that followed, further modifications or redesigns took place and more telescopes or other instruments were added again and again. A visit is very worthwhile.

The bronze “The Stargazers” from 1971, placed in front of the observatory, is also nice to look at.
