Observatory Sky Board

Every public telescope night at Berlin's two big observatories this autumn, with the sky computed for that exact hour over the city. Pick a night and a start time to see where the Moon and Saturn stand, how bright the Moon is, and which observatory has its telescope open.

Programme of the Stiftung Planetarium Berlin as published on 27 September 2026. Tickets €12, reduced €8, 90 minutes, from age 12 (the 18:00 Sternenkieker sessions are for children from 8). Sky positions are computed for central Berlin and are accurate to about a degree. Clouds decide on the night: if the sky is closed, the observatory moves you into its planetarium or lecture hall instead.
