Route astronomical observatories of Catalonia

Montsec Astronomical Park

The Serra del Montsec, located in the Catalan Pre-Pyrenees, has been recognized for many years as one of the places that show exceptional astronomical observation conditions due to both its meteorological conditions and the low impact of light pollution. You can enjoy the Eye of Montsec 3D, a 3D digital multimedia planetarium with a mobile dome 12 meters in diameter that will leave you with your mouth open. You will also find the telescope park, where you will observe the most outstanding objects of the night: the Moon, the planets, the nebulas...

Pujalt Observatory

The Pujalt Observatory, managed by the Ernest Guille and Moliné Foundation, has the main support of the Pujalt City Council. The main objectives of the Observatory are to disseminate and teach science and carry out scientific research. This is carried out by conducting courses on meteorology and astronomy for schools and adults, astronomical observations for the general public with complementary explanations of astronomy, talks around science and also around energy.

Observatory of Garraf

The team of the Garraf Astronomical Observatory offers a series of Astronomy activities throughout the year that are accessible to all audiences. For many, they represent the first contact with the practice of astronomical observation. In a fun and didactic way, we will learn to observe the sky, interpret its basic movements and identify the stars. We will solve doubts, asking about those questions that have always intrigued us: know how to orient ourselves in the sky, distinguish the stars from the planets,

The dissemination sessions are helped by a modern Digitarium digital planetarium, a simulation tool that will allow us to travel the sky from ancient times to the future, from the Garraf's horizons to those of any other place on Earth!

Albanyà Astronomical Observatory

The Albanyà Observatory is fully automated and has state-of-the-art astronomical equipment, including the largest telescope in the province of Girona. Its advanced facilities allow from the dissemination of astronomy, for the uninitiated public, to scientific research, for professional astronomers.

One of the most exclusive activities of the observatory is the nocturnal astronomical baptisms, a unique sensory experience. It is an audiovisual tour through the sky adapting the content of the astronomical baptism to the meteorological circumstances of the moment and, at the time of the year in which we find that the experience is entirely enriching.

The Astronomical Observatory Las Gavarres

Located on the top floor of the Sanctuary of the Angels of Girona, this space was born with the intention of bringing the world of astronomy and astronomical observation to anyone who is curious to learn about this wonderful science. We find the inflatable planetarium a didactic resource that helps us to bring Astronomy closer to the little ones, but also to those who are not.

Castelltallat Astronomical Observatory

Located in an unpopulated area between Bages and Solsonès, the location of the Observatory, a little less than 1000 meters high and far from any urban center, makes it a privileged place for observing the sky. You can explore the Universe as a family, in the company of friends, with your partner, or alone.

Observatorio Astronómico Mundo Natura Pirineos

Located in the beautiful landscape of the valleys of Àneu, in the Pallars Sobirà, MónNatura Pirineos is a center that has unique facilities in the Pyrenees that allow the visitor to make life in the high mountains and discover its attractions, including its sky. From the astronomical observatory you can take a look at the Cosmos of an exceptional singularity thanks to the absence of light and atmospheric pollution.
