As already described, the astropeiler can be visited on Sundays at 2 pm in the summer months (May to October). It is a guided tour with lectures costing 5 € and takes about 2 hours. The owner is now the NRW Foundation which has also renovated the direction finder. There are four mirrors of varying size and condition throughout the grounds. Further information on the history and so on can be found at: astropeiler.de/radioteleskop-astropeiler-stockert
