Linden Observatory Complex
Linden Observatory Complex, Astronomical observatory in Blue Mountains, Australia
The Linden Observatory Complex contains multiple research buildings, including a sliding roof observatory housing a 76cm reflector mounted on an equatorial platform.
Ken Beames established the observatory in the 1940s, constructing the largest telescope in New South Wales until the mid-1960s development of Siding Spring Observatory.
The observatory maintains a regular program of night sky observation sessions, enabling local communities to learn about astronomical phenomena and celestial objects.
Access to the observatory requires advance booking through the official website, with visitors joining scheduled viewing sessions or arranging private group experiences.
The facility houses an early Australian-made planetarium instrument, developed by Ken Beames in his engineering workshops during his astronomical research period.
