Tycho Brahe PlanetariumTycho Brahe Planetarium is an exciting building in the center of Copenhagen.

Despite its name, it’s not a real planetarium. It’s a public center for astronomy and natural science and an IMAX theater, named after the great Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546-1601).

The exhibition inside the planetarium features models of the solar system and the planets orbiting the sun. The IMAX theater mostly shows films about nature, and after each viewing the current night sky is explained to the audience.

The building also houses a gift shop which sells a variety of gadgets, posters and magazines about astronomy.
