Review:
A physics professor from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee opened the Manfred Olson Planetarium in 1965. Today, this planetarium will pique the interest of any visitor, particularly those interested in science.
The facility is equipped with digital projectors and visual effects, all of which provide a stimulating visual experience. If you are looking for fun things to do in Milwaukee with kids, head to the Manfred Olson Planetarium.
Astronomical items of interest are on display throughout the Manfred Olson Planetarium, and on the outside deck, you’ll find an observatory.
Stargazing sessions are held here as well, and you are welcome to use the telescopes to spot planets, stars, and other astronomical wonders.
