Nicolaus-Copernicus-Planetarium, Educational planetarium in Nuremberg, Germany.

The Nicolaus-Copernicus-Planetarium features an 18-meter-wide dome that presents detailed projections of celestial bodies, stars, and astronomical phenomena to 70,000 annual visitors.

The original planetarium stood at Rathenauplatz until its demolition during the Third Reich, leading to the construction of the current facility after World War II.

The planetarium organizes astronomy shows, scientific lectures, music performances, and art projections that connect visitors with space exploration and scientific understanding.

Visitors receive a 50 percent discount with the NÜRNBERG CARD, and the facility maintains complete wheelchair accessibility throughout its premises.

This establishment stands as Bavaria's sole large-scale planetarium, equipped with advanced projection technology for immersive astronomical experiences.
