About
The Cincinnati Observatory is the center for education, history, and inspiration. Learn more about our philosophy toward public engagement and our mission to get everyone to look through a telescope to have a "WOW" moment with the universe.
We're the oldest public Observatory in the country. We host events onsite and all over the tri-state. The mission of the Cincinnati Observatory is to maintain the integrity and heritage of an historic 19th century observatory and to educate, engage, and inspire our community about astronomy and science.
