Zeiss Large Planetarium

Under the three-quarter sphere of Berlin's "Zeiss Large Planetarium" you can contemplate the starry sky even on a cloudy, almost rainy afternoon. That's what I did today.

The Zeiss Large Planetarium is located in the former East Berlin in Prenzlauer Berg (or Prenzlberg as the locals say). Inaugurated in Oktober 1987, it was built as one of the world's largest planetariums. You enter the 295-seat planetarium on the second floor. The seating arrangement is unidirectional, which means that the seats point in one preferred direction of projection.

The planetarium offers a special program for children, and also foreign language events in English and Russian (must be booked for groups - events ).
