Broemmelsiek Park Observatory


Schwede Road at Wilson 63385 
Use this address to find Broemmelsiek Park in Google Maps.
BTW, the off-leash area for dog lovers is nearby on Wilson Rd.


Every Friday evening, if the sky is clear, telescopes are set up for your enjoyment.  Astronomy people will help you look. 

A Celestron 14" SCT is mounted in the "shed" at Broemmelsiek Park's Astronomy Viewing area.  This is a fabulous telescope, good for planets and deep sky objects.











The Jones-Bird 16" aperture telescope is a real champ viewing deep sky objects.  And the Moon is incredible!


It has its own dog house.
