VISIT MOUNT WILSON OBSERVATORY


Located on Mount Wilson, a 5,710-foot peak in the San Gabriel Mountains near
Pasadena, California, the Observatory was conceived and founded by George Ellery
Hale in 1904. The home of some of the most important telescopes in the
development of modern astronomy - including the two largest telescopes of their
time - it is a site of significant scientific and Los Angeles history. The
Observatory and grounds are open to the public to visit, and during the spring
and summer hosts public programs including observing through the historic
telescopes, lectures, concerts, educational programs, and more.
