Om evente gaan heb ik het mailadres gezocht van Mika Aarnio en gevraagd of de observatory al gerestaureerd was en of deze vandaag de dag nog gebruikt word. Volgens mij zijn ze er nog steeds mee bezig.
That observatory is on the roof of the Abo Academy University library in city center. Last time they have use the Carl Zeiss telescope in 1970s. Conservators says, there are few metal parts that they can't be sure if they can protect those. It seem to be at original conditions from 1920s, so it's better to do nothing than destroy it.
I hope, they will find the right conservation methods. It's not a financial problem for the Åbo Akademi University Endowment Fund.
