We went to a tea party here and it was FANTASTIC. Not only did we learn about tea and a bit of it's history, but we got to look through one of the oldest working telescopes in North America! We viewed the sun. What a great experience. I hope we can come back to another one. I will say this is an intimate space so those who do not enjoy sitting closely with their unknown neighbors may not feel comfortable.
Take a trip to the stars at the lighthouse in the sky. 180 year old telescope, using all original equipment makes it one of the oldest working telescopes. An absolute gem, hidden in a Hyde Park neighborhood. No, you didn’t turn down the wrong street, it’s nestled just at the top.
Although I didn't take a tour,I enjoyed learning about the history of the observatory and found the buildings and grounds to be interesting and very well maintained.

My partner and I attended the sweetest day event. The history behind the observatory and how the staff incorporated love into the theme was awesome. We had a blast and even saw Saturn and Neptune.
Great history. Awesome staff/volunteers. My 5 year old loved it. We bought our tickets weeks in advance, and it was sold out due to the evening being perfect for star gazing.
