A small astronomical observatory for a change.
The Observatory of Tiana in Spain, Barcelona region, organizes activities of astronomical research and popularization. In addition, on weekends it operates as an Information Point of the Serralada Marina Park.
The Tiana Observatory was built in 2002 thanks to the collaboration of the Astronomy Group of Tiana with the Municipality of Tiana and the Barcelona Provincial Council.
Equipped with a 43 cm telescope, it offers astronomical research activities, mainly in the field of planetary astronomy (systematic study of Jupiter and Mars) and asteroids, without neglecting topics such as the study of the sun and the moon. Once a month, it organizes popularization events open to the public, such as observations, conferences and activities for children. In addition, schools can carry out visits, workshops or research work in the facilities.
