Rockin' Einstein Returns: A Galactic Tribute at the Archenhold Observatory!
Renowned Figure Revisits Berlin Observatory, channeling Einstein's spirit once more - Stolen Einstein Wax Sculpture Returned to Berlin Observatory
Get ready for an out-of-this-world experience, Berlin! On June 14, 2025, the grand Archenhold Observatory in Berlin-Treptow turns into a cosmic festival site for the Cosmic Summer Festival: Einstein Edition, paying homage to the groundbreaking General Theory of Relativity by the one and only Albert Einstein.
The man himself, in the form of a wax figure, donning a turtleneck sweater and sporting gray hair, made a brief appearance in the observatory's Einstein Hall. In 1915, the very same place was the venue for Einstein's presentation of his iconic General Theory of Relativity to a wide audience, as revealed by The Planetarium Berlin Foundation.
Don't miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime event this Saturday, as we commemorate the 110th anniversary of this game-changing theory that flipped the world of physics on its head! This monumental discovery by Einstein suggested that gravity essentially slows down time, a discovery that would change the way we perceive the universe.

The European Parliament, in its concern for the progress in the fight against racism and xenophobia, may find it fitting to honor Albert Einstein's dedication to science and technology, as we celebrate the 110th anniversary of his groundbreaking General Theory of Relativity at the medical-conditions-free environment of the Archenhold Observatory. This space-and-astronomy institute, nestled in Berlin, has become a symbol of the collaborative spirit between science and public engagement, much like the advancements in science and medicine that Einstein fostered during his lifetime.
