Planetarium of Havana

Discover the Planetarium of Havana in Cuba and let it take you on a journey through time and space


Planetarium of Havana.

The Planetario de La Habana (Planetarium of Havana) is a must-visit place in Cuba. It was built in 2009 with the help of the Japanese government and is located in Calle Mercaderes, near the Plaza Vieja Square in Havana.

The Planetarium has exhibitions including a scale model of the Solar System inside a huge sphere, a Big Bang simulation, and a theater where it is possible to see more than 6,000 stars.


Planetarium of Havana, Cuba.

In its interior you can go on a 45 minute imaginary cosmic journey underneath more than 2,500 stars and the main planets in the Solar System. The tour starts with the Big Bang, and extends throughout the 13,700 million year history of the universe, explaining its origins according to different scientific theories.

The Planetarium has several telescopes, a projector that can lock onto more than 6,500 stars, a library of astronomy, a theater, interactive games, and a staff made up of physicists and astronomers.

In the Cosmonaut Hall you’ll also find lots of information about Cuba’s milestones in this area, especially concerning the 1980 Russian-Cuban flight, when Arnaldo Tamayo became the first Cuban and Latin American to travel to space.
