Osservatorio Astronomico del Celado
The main instrument, a reflector with a diameter of 80 cm, was built by the AstroOptik company of Philipp Keller and is among the 8 largest in Italy among public observatories.
Thanks to the expertise of the operators at this observatory, you can plan guided tours by appointment and participate in activities both during the day – to observe the Sun, the Moon and the planets Mercury and Venus - and at night - when you can see the most spectacular celestial bodies, from the Moon and planets to star clusters, up to nebulae and galaxies. The main instrument, a reflector with a diameter of 80 cm, was built by the AstroOptik company of Philipp Keller and is among the 8 largest public observatories in Italy. The Celado astronomical observatory, in the municipality of Castello Tesino, about 1.6 km after the restaurant al Cacciatore, is owned by the municipality of Castello Tesino and is managed by the Association of Astrophiles Union of Tesino and Valsugana (UATV).
