Permanent Exhibition:
The Central Building of the Centre d’Observació de l’Univers houses a permanent exhibition covering the main areas of interest of the COU: astronomy, obviously, but also the geology, fauna and flora of the Montsec region are given pride of place.
The astronomical section gives an overview of the main topics in Astronomy, from the Big Bang, the formation of galaxies and the evolution of stars and black holes through to the detection of other planets and our neighbours in the Solar System.
But the exhibition not only looks towards the sky but also out to the area surrounding the COU. This location boasts outstanding scenic, geological and biological wealth. The exhibition reproduces and analyses the different habitats in the Montsec region and gives an overview of its geological history, including all the huge transformations the Earth has gone through since it was formed.
