🔭 Lohrmann Observatory

The Lohrmann Observatory is an astronomical observatory at the Dresden University of Technology in Dresden, Germany. Founded by Bernhard Pattenhausen in 1913, it is housed in the upper tower of the Beyer Building on the southern border of the TU Dresden campus, one of the earliest high-rise buildings in Germany. The observatory is named after the Dresden astronomer and cartographer Wilhelm Gotthelf Lohrmann, who produced some of the most detailed maps of the Moon in the 19th century.
