Observe stars through a telescope and see lake views from a terrace

For the first time in almost ninety years, the astronomical domes of Castel Gandolfo's Papal Palace are open to visitors.

These include two functional observatories of the Vatican: the major dome with an 8.5-meter diameter, equipped with a Visual Telescope for observing stars and planets; and the minor dome, with an 8-meter diameter, featuring the Double Astrograph used for photographic surveys of the sky and the position of stars.

Access the observatories via a spiral staircase to the third-floor terrace, which provides views of Lake Albano.

The gardens were breathtaking, and the palace was charming. However, the place was a bit crowded during my visit. Still, an enjoyable day out in a beautiful setting.

The peace and beauty of the place were incredible. Truly a great experience, although the guidance was a bit hard to undestand due to the accent.

El Palacio Papal es impresionante y los jardines son una maravilla para los sentidos. Disfrutamos mucho del recorrido, aunque a veces había demasiada gente para mi gusto.

Los jardines son preciosos, pero la señalización es un poco conmfusa. Aun con ese detalle, vale mucho la pena el recorrido. Recomiendo ir temprano para disfrutar mejor.
