The Marshall W. Alworth Planetarium of the University of Minnesota at Duluth was built in 1967 with a donation from Marshall William Alworth. The planetarium offers a range of one hour long public shows using the Spitz A3P Star Machine, which allows visitors to enjoy a splendid view of the night sky.

If you are wondering what to do in Duluth, Minnesota with kids, this is a great place to visit.
