The Prague Planetarium is one of the largest in the world and the only one of its kind in the Czech Republic. The main hall is the so-called Great Hall with a diameter of 22 m for 278 spectators. The state-of-the-art LED Dome system with 45 million diodes displays the sharpest universe you have ever seen.
In the Planetarium Prague, in the middle of the Royal Stromovka Nature Reserve, you will literally touch the stars. On the largest projection screen in the country, you can watch the stars whether it is dark or light, bright or rainy outside. In addition, you can watch films projected on the whole sky (a dome with a diameter of 22 m), which literally surround you. The interactive exhibition ESA Phi Experience, the Apollo 11 landing module and the space shuttle Atlantis are open at the Prague Planetarium.
Prague has the most modern planetarium in Europe
After the reconstruction and replacement of the projection system, the planetarium dome will open to visitors in June 2025. The biggest new feature is the state-of-the-art LED dome, which replaces the original projection system and offers an unprecedented audiovisual experience. The planetarium is equipped with revolutionary projection technology that allows visitors to view the projection in previously unattainable quality. LED technology brings a completely new way of projection - millions of diodes create the image themselves. This results in unprecedented contrast, sharpness and brightness. Plus, it's ideal for 3D projection. The planetarium offers a wide range of experiences - from licensed shows to original novelties. Visitors can enjoy, for example, a puppet film with Spejbl and Hurvínek, a film about dinosaurs or a sequel to the popular 3-2-1 Start! series. In the future, it also plans concerts, theatre performances and other cultural events. For stargazing in Prague, you can also visit the Štefánik Observatory in Petřín and the Ďáblice Observatory.
ESA Exposure: Earth from Space
The exhibition deals with remote sensing of the Earth using satellites. They make it possible to observe even hard-to-reach places such as high mountains, poles and oceans, to better understand the processes and changes taking place on a global scale on Earth. A global perspective is crucial for studying climate change, air quality, ocean circulation, population growth, natural disasters and other phenomena. Use the global projection of satellite data onto a giant globe to explore your home planet. An interactive touch table lets you understand how satellites help protect our planet using two interactive apps. In one, you will explore selected satellite images in the themes of air, land, ice and water. Using data from ESA and Copernicus, you can see how the planet is changing over time and understand long-term trends affecting the environment. The second app, the „Mini Control Room“, offers a behind-the-scenes look at remote sensing.
The height model will take you to the landscape of the Czech Republic and to the reflection on climate change. How will this country in the heart of Europe protect its landscape and population in the future? Planetarium Prague - offer of educational programmes, excursions or lectures for all ages The programme includes topics in astronomy, physics, chemistry, biology, geography and other related fields. The planetarium develops the knowledge of pupils and students and awakens their interest in technical subjects and space. The observatories and planetarium in Prague operate under the Planetum brand, which brings the universe closer in a variety of ways to provide an even better experience.
