Welcome to the association Sonnblick Verein!

The association Sonnblick Verein supports the scientific programms of the Sonnblick Observatory located at Mt. Hoher Sonnblick.

The association's most important task is the historical documentation, scientific promotion, and knowledge transfer of the observatory—a globally unique research facility. Since 1886, climatological observations and measurements have been carried out on the Sonnblick at over 3,000 m above sea level—the longest in the world at this altitude and therefore of particular importance for climate research.

In collaboration with GeoSphere Austria, the Sonnblick Verein wants to provide the scientific community with a modern and well-functioning “research observatory above the clouds.” At the same time, the association endeavors to communicate the results of this research to all interested parties in an understandable way.
