Urania Sternwarte from the Lindenhofstraße Bridge
Urania Sternwarte is a public observatory in Zürich, named for the muse of astronomy in Greek mythology. Built between 1905-7 and the oldest concrete building in Zürich, its 51 metre tower dominates the western end the historic Altstadt.
Despite the light-polluted location, it remains a working observatory with a 30 cm refractor.
