History

Established in 1896.

Western Australia’s oldest observatory is located 25 km east of Perth in Bickley. The Observatory has served WA for 119 years and remains actively involved in the service of public education. In recognition of its scientific, cultural and historical significance, the Observatory was entered on the state’s Heritage Register in 2005.

Experience our amazing night sky through our wide range of telescopes at our sky viewing nights. Our day tours have been designed for school excursions and relate directly to the Australian National Curriculum.
