We have been selling vintage astronomical instruments for over more than 10 years.
I'm a amateur astronomer myself and all instruments I sell are in good working condition.
I test all the telescopes under the stars and know the possibilities of each instrument
All the instruments are controlled and cleaned before shipping.
The necessary reparations are done.
If possible missing parts are replaced.
If not, read the item description carefully for possible defects.
Take a close look at the photos

In 1991 the Public Observatory of Ždánice exited 25 years. At this occasion an article was written in the Czech astronomy magazine Říšehvězd (Empire of stars). The article briefly outlines the history of the observatory.
The construction of the hotel isn't mentioned in the article.
The plans for the observatory were made by Ing. Marie Kotíková and Rudolf Pavlik. |
Vilém Gajdušek (1895–1977) was Czech optician and prominent telescope designer. Asteroid 3603 Gajdušek is named for him.
Asteroid 8229 is named in honor of František Kozelský (1913–2003 ), a Czech telescope maker well-known for his work in collaboration with V. Gajdušek. Kozelský. Kozelský made several 60cm Cassegrains and a series of 20cm refractors for observatories in Czech Republic, Slovakia and the rest of former Eastern Europe.
Hvězdárna Ždánice (1963) was the first big project by Gajdušek
