The facility will give guests with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the night sky as it is rarely seen, and will be fully guided by an expert tour guide.
Visitors to the centre will be able to learn about our solar system, use telescopes to view the night sky without light pollution (because Davagh is Northern Ireland’s only official “dark sky” park), and enjoy cutting-edge technology like holographic installations, virtual reality headsets, and bespoke evening audio-visual shows. The observatory is situated among the ancient Beaghmore Stone Circles, at the foot of the Sperrin Mountains, in the heart of a diverse landscape rich in archaeological and cultural significance, as well as a millennia-long history.
