Sola Fide Observatory
The Sola Fide Observatory is an astronomical observatory owned and operated by staff and volunteers from JC Hormel Nature Center. It is located 3 miles south of Austin, Minnesota.
In 2019 the observatory added a 10-foot x 60-foot concrete observing strip with 120-volt AC power poles and 3 separate concrete observing pads. The observatory's main scope is an 18" Starmaster fully-computerized Dobsonian telescope.
