THE HISTORY OF ASTRONOMY EXHIBITION

An astronomical and space research exhibition is waiting for you on 400 m2 at the Pannon Observatory.

PLANETARIUM

The Pannon Observatory has the most modern digital planetarium of Hungary. The 3D picture with a resolution twice of the HD picture, projected onto the hemi-globe shaped dome with a diameter of 8 meters, together with the 5.1 surround sound system take us on an unforgettable cosmic journey while we are sitting in the armchairs known from the IMAX movies.
Attention! The ticket includes one planetarium show only!

Film+ tickets are available depending on the capacity of the planetarium.
