GOßDORF OBSERVATORY
The Observatory Goßdorf is a small privately-owned observation spot next to the Saxonian Switzerland National Park. Intrinsically motivated by the topic of astronomy, Mr and Mrs Ledig installed astronomical equipement in their backyard, also including a SQM. You can contact them via their website to book an appointment for a private star gazing session.
