After buying the land, the tower with the library was built, followed later by the living area with workshop and still later the studio and conservatory. Recently, a second observatory dome was purchased from America and mounted on a wooden platform. A large solar telescope is to find its place here. There are 8 telescopes in the old dome, each for a different purpose (every telescope has its own sky...). Prof. Wöss is happy to show visitors around the observatory. As the planetary hiking trail also passes by, a Pluto square has been set up in front of the observatory, where anyone interested can read important information on 7 boards and listen to space sounds: What do solar storms, pulsars etc. sound like?
