The sky of the Silesian Planetarium, the biggest dome in Poland at 23 metres, houses an analogue projector which displays the night sky to 380 spectators.

It was founded on 4 December 1955 to commemorate the astronomer Copernicus, and projects around 8,000 stars.

More info on the Planetarium can be found here.
