Sternstunden Festival

In 2025, the program was again spread across five stages throughout the historic grounds. During the day, classical concerts and science communication dominated, while in the evenings, electronic sets took over, complemented by telescope observations in the observatory domes.

With its observatory location and academic sponsorship, the festival clearly positions itself apart from the traditional open-air competition. It attracts an audience interested in both music and science — a growing segment in the Northern German festival landscape.
