If you hired the car in Prague, and your road goes you to Brno - highly recommended to go to Brno planetarium! Nice place for inquiring minds!
What will you find here?
Digital planetarium
The digital planetarium will immerse you with its scene and sound. The series of special projectors combined with tens of computers can conjure a surprisingly true model of the space on the projection screen with a diameter of 17 meters. The repertoire of the digital planetarium does not include only astronomical shows. We will take you to the places that are hard to get to – under water, inside a human body, to the near future, to the microworld and macrocosm… Many of our shows are simultaneously projected in English. Headphones are available on request at the ticket desk.
Story of the Solar System
The exposition called the Story of the Solar System will provide you with a modern view of the vicinity of our planet. There are interactive exhibits, large-scale illustrations and samples of extraterrestrial rocks and fossils. You will live out an incredible story of the Solar System, a fascinating corner of the universe, which forms our world. All captions and legends are in English and German and there is a printed English and German guide book available.
Astronomical Observation Point
Have you seen with your eyes the spots on the Sun, craters on the Moon, the ring of Saturn, the storms and satellites of Jupiter, crescent of Venus, colour binary stars, star clusters, nebulas and galaxies millions light years away? We can comfortably show you all of that with the help of modern astronomical telescopes with the lens diameter of up to 35 cm. Excursions in English and German only by prior agreement. Excursions in English and German only by prior agreement (for groups of at least 10 visitors).
Observation Deck
The Observation Deck offers almost magical both day and night views of Brno. With your eyes, but also with the help of portable telescopes you can take a look at the night sky. Although it is not very dark, you can still see the Sun, Moon, planets of the Solar System and the most conspicuous star constellations from there. The Observation Deck is open during the day without guided observations.
It is very interesting and impressively. Of course, this place is for a multiple visit. Kids grow up and dream about universe more and more)
