Look up at the stars inside Civico Planetario Ulrico Hoepli, Milan's vintage planetarium from the 1930s. Sit beneath its large dome and follow an astronomy show projected by a classic planetarium instrument.
Full description
Civico Planetario Ulrico Hoepli is an institution dating to the 1930s, with a large dome of about 300 seats and a classic projection instrument that displays the night sky. The shows are educational and presented in Italian, with English provided through a live translation on your phone, which some visitors find hard to follow at the presenter's pace.
The experience is vintage in character and short, around an hour, making it a good fit for families and culture-minded visitors. Booking is recommended, and sessions run mainly from morning to early evening.
