Åkesta observatorium VARF

Stargazing in Västerås

Västerås Astronomi och rymdforskningsförening, VARF, (‘Västerås’s Astronomy and Space Research Society’) is run as a voluntary society and here you can gaze at the endless via a telescope. The observatory was built about 70 years ago, but has been maintained with the help of subsidies and donations. Everyone is welcome here, young and old.
