ON DECEMBER 1, 1983, THE WOLFSBURG PLANETARIUM OPENED ITS DOORS TO THE PUBLIC FOR THE FIRST TIME.

The first planetarium projector, which is still on display in the foyer today, was a gift from Volkswagen AG to the city of Wolfsburg to mark the 40th anniversary of the city's founding. The car manufacturer had previously received the projector as part of a compensation deal for 10,000 Golf I cars with the former German Democratic Republic. The story of the planetarium's origins is therefore a fascinating and remarkable chapter in German history.

The planetarium is celebrating the 40th anniversary of its opening together with the public with various activities and a special show program.

We at ZEISS, Planetarium Division, are proud to be a part of this history and to be a reliable partner to this day.

Congratulations and all the best for the future!
